If there is a GOD, this cannot happen. I would MUCH rather see a Google-owned ARM where they allow everyone EXCEPT Apple to use the ARM than an Apple monopoly where no one EXCEPT Apple would be allowed to use the ARM architecture in any device that competed with an Apple product. Apple makes their money with (overpriced) hardware, Google doesn't. That's not part of their business model or strategy. However, ideally, I would much, much rather see ARM remain totally independent.r00tw00t said:
If any attempt is made by Apple to buy ARM, it should be fought tooth and nail by enthusiasts everywhere in every legal way they can.

Who cares ,if there is a pandora 2 lol not even a pandora 1 yet the hardware can change and mabe an advanced atom chip or that nvidia chip would be a choice ,more money better all round ,the only problem is battery life ,isn't this the only reason to go with arm ? i recon arm is the stopping force of the pandora anyway and in the future these new small mobile chips will perform better and with less power.

As long as they continue to make their chips available to consumer products it shouldnt make a difference. Hoarding the chips wont make them any money.

It would remove any competition for apple and most other companies with embedded devices would be doomed.
Looks like it's not going to happen. I guess the future of ARM is safe after all.

I spy with my little eye the logical fallacy of denying the antecedent.
Given: "there is a god" => "this cannot happen"
Does NOT imply: "there is no god" => "this must happen"

It'd be approaching a monopoly... and really when has Apple ever worried about competition? People will buy anything with the apple name on it just out of habit.
