Asus NovaGo: Snapdragon for Windows
It is worth mentioning that the Asus NovaGo laptop is not the first attempt to include a Snapdragon chipset for a Windows device. It is actually the second attempt of the Windows OS that helps laptops to get more power-efficient and run faster.
To recall, the first attempt was called as Windows RT which was introduced in the Microsoft Surface Tablets; however, the Windows RT failed to change the PC industry. It will be interesting to see whether the Snapdragon for Windows attempt on Asus NovaGo works well or not.
