Thanks for the feedback. This article has of course been inspired by the Apple CPU transition. But it is really a broad look at the ARM vs x86 battle playing itself out and how this will develop over time.

Apple, Amazon, Ampere, Nvidea, China etc may all have entirely different goals. But they all have in common that they rather see a future without x86.

This is what is leading intel to get attacked from all sides by ARM.

And this time around it doesn't really matter how dynamic intel is. Intel was able to answer the RISC challenge in the past by making their CPUs more RISC like internally and by pushing smaller transistors.

But now intel has painted themselves into a corner. Making smaller transistors than the competitors is no longer an option. They are years behind.
