  &gt; Fujitsu seems to be weirdly stubborn about global commercialisation of their CPUs. I know of at least a couple of HPC customers who wanted to build systems based on A64FX and the answer was basically &quot;...nah we&#x27;re good&quot;.
      This attitude is seen in a lot of Japanese tech companies and their products over the past multiple decades, and it really irritates me. This, or the root cause of this, has to be one of major reasons why Japanese economy had stagnated, if not the key reason. There had been just so many things created, launched, and ... vanished in the wind.
