I thought Apple has a special magic license, as they were one of the founding members of ARM?...
- gumby 3y agoThey sold their ARM stake in their near-death phase. They have an architectural license. At this point I assume their whole ARM portfolio has been designed from scratch and they are paying those license fees for patent licenses and bc they still use the ARM instruction set. Cheaper than switching.
