Better (or simply more) ARM processors, no matter who makes them, are a win. They tend to be far more power-efficient, and with performance-per-watt improving each generation, pushing for wider ARM adoption is a practical step toward lowering overall energy consumption.

Meh, performance-per-watt is not what everybody wants. I only want it in that it affords more raw performance by allowing more watts to be pumped through it without thermal overload. But if that can't actually happen then I'm still more interested in x86. Sure the lights dim when I turn my PC on, but I want the performance.
