   AFAIK datacenters still use a lot of x86 CPUs, even though most of them   
   run software that's just as easily available for ARM.  And many   
   datacenters care more about "perf per watt" than raw performance.   
      
   So, I think the difference in power consumption does not favor ARM   
   nearly as significantly as you think.
