Even your PC has more non-x86 CPUs than x86.

Some of them are microcontrollers. But the PC still runs on x86.

Yes, but if its operation is invisible to you, and you can't install anything on it (without the use of a soldering gun and a JTAG style adapter), then it really an apt comparison...

But you cannot use your household ARM computers. They use you.
