Eh, Intel was so scared of itself it even stopped Atom getting properly powerful, and that was x86. No way they will get into the ARM team, the instant what they build starts being powerful they will get scared of it too and kill it. A good part of why they take such a beating in x86 too, Intel has no backup plan because they're scared of their own backup up, while being oblivious to the fact that it was their backup plan that saved them during the post-P4 era. At least AMD is not scared of throwing away their arch every few years and restart, they've pretty much been doing that like clockwork every five years for the past two decades.
