Suddenly this doesn't sound that good anymore...

Sure, then it will be Intel, ATI-AMD, Nvidia, Nokia and Microsoft which is enough to dominate the market.

But if I'm to look at the cash X86 swallowed vs ARM I believe Atoms performance should not be as questionable as it is right now.

I wonder if RISC (ARM), was developed on so hard as Amd and Intel developed X86, could compete in the high end high performance segment (PCs, servers)
