Linus Torvalds pulls pin, tosses in grenade: x86 won, forget about Arm in server CPUs, says Linux kernel supremo

Charles 9

But hobbyist programmers and coders "on the coalface," so to speak, are two different worlds. Torvalds has a point that Intel has tremendous amounts of institutional momentum to its advantage, especially in the server world. I too have developed a healthy skepticism about new technology announcements (like post-NAND nonvolatile storage/memory), given how much has ended up vaporware or is stuck in "slow time" zone. Like him, perhaps my sentiment is best stated as, "Call me when you have actual product."
