Robson: a new card in Apple's hands?

You might have read about Intel's Robson technology. Based on flash memory, it should boost computer performances while at the same time using less power. Micrsosoft proceeded to a very convincing demonstration with Windows. Not only was startup time much shorter, but applications as well (such as Photoshop) were running faster.
The only problem is that Robinson works only on XP and on the first Beta versions of Vista, not on the latest ones.
Sure this could be temporary, but it could also be that this technology is part of the huge load of innovations Microsoft has decided to give up for the first version of its new system expected some time this decade...
Apple could then take advantage of the situation and be the first to implement it. Beyond the battle opposing Vista and OSX, it is a fact that Microsoft is still trying to stabilize its system and finalize its features, while Apple has had time to fine tune its own and now has a solid basis to build on.
