They will produce them, but I doubt that they will focus entirely on
that. Like I said, they've already invested so much into producing the
x86-64 chips that even if they were to decide to focus on ARM
development, they wouldn't just abandon it. I see no long-term future
for x86-64 myself, mostly because it truly can't compete with something
that doesn't have all of the archaic code bogging it down. However, a
lot of companies probably need a chip which will run their ancient
software. Unless the emulation offered on ARM is stellar - and I'm sure
it will be - people will want the older architecture.

Some things die eventually... 

I didn't know they were still being made. The Zilog headquarters used to be
right up the road in Nampa, Idaho. (That building hasn't been Zilog for
quite a while now.)
