Drill,

The thing is that ARM licenses its core, while Intel doesnt. ARM allows many many silicon vendors to do their own thing. Make their own server CPUs etc. Something they had never been able to do before.

I have no doubt that Intel will get competitive over time on the power front, if they are not already there yet. But people need to know that ARM is getting competitive on the performance front too. So that many silicon vendors, not just Intel, can come out with servers, and SOCs for other types of applications which is pure x86 right now.
