Hello, I have recently heard that ARM CPU's tend to be more power efficient than x86 CPU's. I know that several free operating systems, Debian GNU/Linux included, support some non-x86 architectures, such as ARM and MIPS.
So, this brought 2 questions to mind: Which processor architecture, or specifically, which CPU lines are specifically designed to be power-efficient? Are there any non-x86 motherboards with PCI, SATA, USB, etc. that would be powerful enough for moderate desktop use, i.e. web surfing, compiling software packages, and playing movies?
