>In celebrating the x86 architecture's 39th birthday yesterday—the 8086 processor first came to market on June 8, 1978—Intel took the rather uncelebratory step of threatening any company working on x86 emulator technology.
>The post doesn't name any names, but it's not too hard to figure out who it's likely to be aimed at: Microsoft, perhaps with a hint of Qualcomm. [...] Windows RT systems could not run any x86 applications. Windows 10 for ARM machines, however, will include a software-based x86 emulator that will provide compatibility with most or all 32-bit x86 applications.

Yup, Intel knows they're dying. Meanwhile, AMD is working on the K12 to be a part of the brave ARM world.

ARM is also closed and proprietary.

Emulation and emulators have gone to court and won basically 100% of the time. I don't think Intel will actually pursue this it looks more like a way to discourage other manufacturers from doing the same.

At the very least it's open to alternative implementations, whereas Intel is attempting to make noone else implement x86.

Only against systems integrators using other companies' CPUs. Nintendo can't prevent anyone implemented 6502 CPUs because they don't have patents on 6502. Intel does have patents on parts of x86.

Well yes, the point being that patent-trolling is the final form of a dying company.

This, folks is why pic related never existed.

This is why Microsoft is dead in the mobile world. They could've easily destroyed iOS and android but Jewtel just went in and fucked it all up.

NEVER trust the jew.

Kek

It looks like a shitty render from the early
90s.
