Not yet.  Still missing from the LC lineup are ARM compiles for Linux 
and Windows, cutting our work out from Win8 RT and Linux venues like 
Raspberry Pi and the new Ubuntu phones.

If we wait long enough there's a chance that the energy savings of 
Intel's post-Haswell line will ultimately make ARM a momentary blip in 
computing history.

But in the meantime ARM is only growing, and we LiveCoders can only use 
it with Android and iOS. :(
