Audio editing with ARM cpu

Note: This was originally posted on 10th April 2011 at http://forums.arm.com

Hello! I'm not a ARM expert but I'm really into ARM devices. Nowdays I mainly make music on my computer and I have to move around with my equipment to record stuff (singing, instruments, atmospheric etc..) and at-place-composing, making beats. I totally need a laptop for it. I'm already familiar with linux audio editing software, thanks to ubuntu-studio. Since Ubuntu/Debian is working so well on ARM I've been planning to buy the Nufront Newton laptop, with 2,0 GHz dual-core cpu. I know that some things are faster with ARM than x86, but does anyone know how well ARM manages with audio editing?

Hi Tuo,
You didn't quite misunderstood the first time actually ;p
Not all ARM Cortex-A9 feature NEON... example would be nVidia Tegra 250.
But ARM Cortex-A5, ARM Cortex-A8 and ARM Cortex-A15 would have NEON.
So, the NuSmart2816 is highly likely to have it, but I have not found a reliable public source just now.
An article seems to suggest so, but it's not an official source.
So, to sum up, not even stupid people!!!
