But why would an article address _their_ specific usecase?

amelius, if anyone had specific requirements, it was you with your "systems for in-flight entertainment".

OP asked a very reasonable question for a very generic comparison to the 800-pound gorilla in the consumer CPU world in general, and ARM CPU world in particular.

If the article can reference AMD's Zen 5 cores and Intel's Lion/Sunny Cove, they could have made at least a brief reference to M-series CPUs. As a reader and potential buyer of any of them, I find it would have been a very useful comparison.

  • In industry, people want to take computing parts and build products with them.

    This is not possible with Apple parts.

    That's what my example was about. It was only specific because I wanted to have a concrete example.

    • > In industry

      Talk about specifics, eh? Didn't you just argue against an article addressing "_their_" specific usecase?

      In a store people will ask "is this better than an Apple?".

      And I'll tell you one more thing, when I was in the industry and taking computing parts to build products with them I did not form an opinion by reading internet reviews. I haven't met anyone who did.
