Based on VIA's own statement of "Using a car analogy, we design an affordable family sedan
that gets very good gas mileage. We leave the pickup truck and sports car market to others.
In car design, increasing the maximum speed beyond some point, say 100 MPH, is very
inefficient in terms of cost and mileage."
I would have to guess not close on performance, however they are using some interesting techniques to get fairly good performance with little power requirements.
Here is a link to their whitepaper.

probably the older one.
my old laptop with intel inside burned a hole in my lap, it got so hot on bottom. This one, was not only dirt cheap ($400 by GQ at Fry's) it barely gets warm underneath. The old laptop (intell proce) got so hot that after 20 minutes on time it would freeze up unless I sat it on a block of ice covered by a towel.
