Am I the only one that feels like the death of Intel-as-an-effective-monopoly is...old news? Like, a decade-old news?
With ARM's ubiquity in mobile and (growing) share of datacentres, the moving of 'compute' from CPU to GPU (esp. cloud), and even Apple and (to a lesser extent) Microsoft moving their _consumer computing_ products to ARM; it feels like not only is the writing on the wall, the writing is in reverse because I'm reading it in my rear-view mirror. It's only a mild exaggeration to say that I'm surprised when I run into unemulated x86 in the wild these days!
