We're getting open source RISC-V wich seems more promising long term than ARM.
- greyhair 5y agoWe'll see. ARM architecture is now about 36 years old. I believe RISC V originated about 10 years ago. I think MIPS started about 40 years ago, but I believe it has finally ground to a stop.
- als0 5y agoThe way I see it is that x86 is still around despite ARM, so ARM will still be around despite RISC-V. No reason why all three can't exist.

- klelatti 5y agoNot sure why you'd say that - especially if you look at Arm v9 and the fact that the architecture is starting to make inroads into there server market. RISC-V is open source which is great in some respects but also not helpful in others.
- zokula 5y agoYou assume Risc V will be open source when it reaches consumers hands.
- halikular 5y agoJust the design. Firmware and software probably not except for FOSS purist products.
