Honestly, who cares about the embedded market? What is the profit margin on a typical mobile ARM CPU? 50 cents? A dollar? ARM market is heavily commoditized, it is a red-ocean market. The real money is in desktop CPUs, server CPUs, desktop and general-purpose GPUs. There we have a total of three major players, down from four a few years ago. These players make all the right moves to make it appear that the embedded market matters, but it really doesn’t.[/quote]
I think server chip have the biggest margin out of them all. Ever wonder how much a server chip cost even in bulk of 1000? With the whole transition to cloud based services, there’s even a higher demand for server chip.
