At a presentation today, Rob Aitken of ARM Research made an almost identical point (although he went all the way down to process, which is probably a step too far for most system companies who have to live with what they get from their foundry). Integration is the key but not all integration approaches are equal. Architecture becomes a question of integrating everything in the right way.
