Intel Corp (INTC)

>> I worry that Samsung will be a major competitor to Intel in CPUs, especially if they aim for micro-servers.

Is it correct to assume that the advantage of a micro server is in power savings, and that is achieved by reducing floating point resources ? What advantage would Samsung have in this regard over Intel's Atom CPU's ?

"ARM demos Samsung's next major CPU, the Exynos 5 Octa

The Exynos 5 Octa is the next major processor iteration in Samsung's CPU lineup, featuring eight CPU cores. It's the company's next great processing beast and should fuel the company's premium tablets for the next few years."
