Why Apple ditched PowerPC, and what it says about ...
At least until the rest of the PC world moves to ARM.
If Apple hits a jackpot a couple of years later I'm sure we will see the same on the Windows world.

The rest of the PC world includes a lot of desktops, and the cost/benefit analysis there is very different - power consumption matters little, and games demand top-of-the-line performance. So I don't think it'll move to ARM wholesale anytime soon.
