  • That is some grade A armchair micro architecture design you got going there.

    Apple completely switched their lineup to the obvious next big thing in processing in less than two years, improving efficiency and performance by leaps and bounds.

    edit: oh yeah and traditional x86 manufacturers have had the same type of exploit while still running hot
