well, you're partialy right.. the ARM people initialy designed the architecture, and from what I've seen, it's really nice. but intel wanted to push forward the design a bit.. so they branched the architecture to make strongarm, code written for strongarm will not execute on a 'real' ARM chip (currently no more than 57mhz, last i checked)

personaly, I wish we wern't so stuck on intel architecture, I would love to see more powerpc, and other architectures in desktop style computers.. I would really love to be able to have 4-5 machines running and not have a $200/month power bill ;)
