This is big. The x86 architecture and Intel in particular seriously need more competition. Looks like they may get it. Sever power consumption is _extremely_ important:

Excerpt:

"Marvell is announcing the plan to offer 40-nm multicore ARM processors in servers. This is big news. It means ARM may not only power all phones, tablets, e-readers, laptops, TVs and desktops of the future, it may also power the cloud computing that serves all those devices.

Google could be one of the “tier one companies building larger server deployments to validate ARM as a server platform”."
