I think Apple really needs to focus on balancing performance, optimization, and power draw. If Apple. can get close enough to Intels 65-95W chips with a 45W chip that would show they are going in the right direction. Intel has been throwing more and more power at things, with little gain for two years now. The high end consumer 10nm stuff is hitting 150-200W to get those 5Ghz+ numbers. If Apple can boost into the 4.5Ghz range at 45W that would be huge for a first round.
