I'm curious how long until most users just don't care if their CPU has native x86 support.
As someone developing HPC applications, I generally don't care either, as long as the hardware has good fundamentals, and is well supported by the available compilers and profiling tools.
Honestly at this point the only reason that I'm aware of to prefer Intel for my workloads is the awesomeness of VTune.
How's the quality of the equivalent AMD or Arm tooling these days?
