It is about time, although it is worth saying that a bunch of the chips here are actually basically ancient due to being released years ago, or being fairly old microarchitectures.

Hat's off to Apple, of course, but Intel were sort of a victim of their own success in that they nearly beat AMD to extinction over the last decade.

I also note that there's no comparison with a properly modern X86 (i.e. an AMD 5000 series). The Apple will still come up on top, most likely, but that Xeon did literally come out in 2012!

Almost might see intel actually come out with a new process node in the next year. Which is a long time coming.
