In the Intel processor comparison page, some processors ar "embedded" while for some it is not ticked.
What is basically this "embedded".
Eg: http://ark.intel.com/Compare.aspx?ids=41411,36331,

I see intel atom processor N270 is embedded bu N280 is not embedded.
What difference will it make in the netbooks?

And 'embedded' chip is usually hard~wired to the motherboard and therefore can not be easily replaced.

------------------------------ Which Chip? Well, it depends on which set of thieving b@stardz you choose to support: The ones who use insider trading to enrich themselves while running their company into the ground, or the ones who illegally pay vendors to not support the first group.

embeded means that theres no socket, its on the board like a chipset, soldered in
