Intel brands both older Skylake-based cores and new Ice Lake based cores as 10th-generation Core. They announced Ice Lake would be called 10th gen first, and tout that a lot louder because it's part of their move to the 10nm manufacturing process, but Ice Lake isn't good for high-clock processors. So its older 14nm process is still making 10th-gen products. See this Intel announcement for example: https://newsroom.intel.com/new... "The new 10th Gen Intel Core processors leverage the improvements in intra-node optimizations on Intel’s highly optimized 14nm process technology that enable up to 16% overall performance gains and over 41% better productivity and multitasking on Microsoft Office 365 compared with the previous generation — all without compromising battery life."

Actually, ARM changed their official name to Arm some years ago (2017 I think). Also the name of their architectures, e.g. Armv8. That's why I wrote it as such. See for example Arm's trademark and brand guidelines: https://www.arm.com/company/po...

I'm the author of the CNET News.com story in question. If you read beyond the opening lines about Linux being too bloated--which by the way also was how Negroponte opened his speech and an interesting tidbit, in my opinion--you find information on some of the 95% of the speech you say was missing. You will see other information about mesh networking, $100 servers, pedal power, a launch delay, the initial $135 price, the dual-mode monitor, and other items.
