We won't know for a long time perhaps but MS really put a lot of brainpower in this design, for sure. No matter what you call it, both seem to do mostly the same.

The chip is really complex... a lot of co-aux processors... MS will have to do a maginal job in development software to make easy the use of all of them.

Yes! Their compiler-team will have to do a lot of work!
