    Apple has announced that they intend to begin using their own cpus in Macs sometime around 2020 and that they want to unify development under iOS and MacOS.
    So...I would assume that it is Apples intention to make a fourth ISA shift to ARM, as that is the only type of cpu they have any real experience designing.

    So, what do you all think?

    Apple appears to be migrating to ARM, Microsoft has ported Windows to ARM, and virtually all phones (and most tablets) are ARM based.

    How will these shifts affect the two primary X64 manufacturers (Intel and AMD)?

    AND, since we have announced a shift to X64 (remembering that a few of us, myself included stated a preference for ARM), will this industry trend negatively impact the variety of hardware available for MorphOS?
