The issue is that mfg of cpus at scale is very costly, and short of a large scale, the per-unit cost to cover tooling is higher... lower margins, less profit, higher cost to the customers.  Per-Unit cost, and relative throughput is why Intel rules the roost for the most part, even in server.<p>I&#x27;ve looked at some of the costs of ARM servers, and they&#x27;re way more expensive than they should be (compared to the cost going into phones)... I would think that may eventually become competitive... though Intel has a bit of room to lower pricing and still make money to compete.
