expect they'd keep it alive for that purpose alone even. apple and microsoft really compete on surprisingly little in 2021.

it’s true. really only the surface machines compete with the iPad line (sorta) and windows 10/OS X aren’t really competitors anymore after Windows 10 became way better than OS X

for convenience intel will cease using node sizes in marketing. the new way of reporting processes will be by number of pluses: currently +10+.

it’s what amd did for megahertz back in the day, so why not?

intel beat the 14nm node already and is on new node +, which is the 14nm node but with even more challenges

how multithreaded is your compiler? IDK if a 5x is worth it here. unless you like, have a line on a supply of them. Then yes loving buy one. Or buy two and sell one to profit $300.

otoh you know how it'll work out if you get your work done *too* fast though right? i suggest a nice intel skylake derivative. make sure you install all the spectre patches to keep the compiles secure.

my compiler is single threaded but I use a little thing called make to run lots of them at once. I can max out as many cores as you’ve got. I have no supply, it may just not be worth it.
