    Is it possible for a hybrid big.LITTLE-like processor where the big cores are x86 / x64 and the LITTLE cores are ARM?

    Of course there is a massive OS modification required for this, I would imagine the x86 x64 OS would live inside some kind of VM, contained inside the ARM operating system. When an x86 application is launched, the VM is launched and ran on the x86 cores. Otherwise its just the ARM OS and ARM cores active sipping minimal power.

    The OS must be able to tell the user that installing and running an x86 application would incur significant battery drain.

    From strategic standpoint, it has to have a decent x86 processor (not Atom cores please) to be viable today, and extremely powerful ARM to aid the transition.
