The x86 architecture will win out for the same reason it won out decades ago. Most of the world's software was compiled for x86. I have all sorts of software I've been running on my Windows laptop. When I go to buy a new laptop, it'll be another Windows x86 laptop because my software would cost more to replace than the machine upon which it's running.


Visualization today is vastly better today than 10 years ago. We've also got a big, growing market that intel isn't doing well in. I wouldn't count Intel out just yet, but them winning is far from sure.
