Linus Torvalds Prefers x86 Chip Architecture Over ARM Anonymous 2016-10-11 22:09:31 Post No. 57034012 [Report]

>The Linux creator says the x86 architecture driven by Intel and AMD offers more openness and compatibility and a broader ecosystem than ARM.

>As a hardware platform, it is still not very pleasant to deal with.

he is right tho, your average ARM SoC is way more locked down and harder to work with than Intel processors

>broader ecosystem

Not sure what he meant by this. Unless he's using some really ancient x86 CPU that happens to have a very low voltage demand, then I doubt he's running a green PC.
