Once, long ago--actually, on Sat, Jul 07, 2012 at 02:54:11PM +0200--Reindl Harald (h.reindl at thelounge.net) said:

I concur that MS can't lock down the x86/x64 market.  However, they ARE
trying to lock down the ARM market--at least, any devices built to run MS
software.  Considering the burgeoning mobile markeplace, this is a matter
for some concern; it's not inconceivable that Intel & clones are going to
be marginalized, or at least minimalized, moving forward in that arena.

Food for thought,
