-cost
making a chip yourself is cheaper than using other people chipset espescially if the chipset that you create is better , more fficient and didnt stuck on 14nm like intel does .
-control and optimization
because apple create the chip itself they know more about the silicon so they can optimize it greatly . it is already done on ios with idevices like iphone and ipad . so im not surprized if apple arm can beat intel offering . it is just a fact that intel mostly doesnt do sh*t and just rebranding older processor and adding some core
-hackintosh
with apple using arm on their mac it is basically eliminating hackintosh entirely . hakintosh only exist when they switch to intel because it is the architecture of what most pc using . by switching arm it is near impossible to run macos on non apple hardware . at this time there is no ios running on any non apple device . why not for mac?
I agree , plus about Security : In 2018 , A bug was found in Intel Processor , where the kind of Meltdown and Spectre can exploit Intel Processor, and in 2019 , another bug was founded, named "ZombieLoad" CMIIW.
And About Apple change their processor to ARM, i think other company must follow to adaptation with apple , look like apple want their device is "Exclusive" , so other company must follow them , not vice versa ..
And I heard News NVdia buy ARM , and Whats is mean for Apple?
