So why does AMD bet on Zen instead of creating their next ARM SoC? The A1100 is pretty good on paper except the CPU but they released it two years too late and the availability still isn't great.

According to the article, x86 constitutes 99.3% of the market. I think AMD would rather have a small piece of the 99.3% rather than a large piece of the 0.7%, even if that 0.7% grows dramatically.
