- sitkack 6y agoIs your argument that every tech business has a free dev/test tier? I don't see an issue with Arm giving free stuff (I think) to startups, but if they started paying (bribing) startups to use ARM designs instead of something else, even RISCV, then there should be huge repercussions. ARM will have to eventually support RISC-V before they succumb. If they innovators dilemma now, they might save themselves, but they would need to figure out what they are to become. The moat is no longer around the ISA, they should be doing design engineering and delivering systems, and selling systems and components. If ARM doesn't transform, they will die like all the other Unix vendors did when Linux took their lunch.
