Apple's processors have been consistently faster than the competition for the last six years. . . there's a lot to be said for designing your own. Apple was the "A" in ARM when it was founded.
Interesting. But are you sure? There are several versions of that story. Wikipedia says that it originally meant Acorn RISC Machine, and later Advanced RISC Machine. Whatever. I'd like to see a tricked out desktop motherboard running ARM … just 'cause.
The A originally stood for Acorn. Later, it stood for Advanced, as in Advanced RISC Machine.
As far as I know, the A has never stood for Apple, although Apple has been working with ARM since the eighties.

It helps that their code is written in Object C instead of Java like android.
Apple had nothing to do with the ARM processor. The “A” stands for “Apricot”.
