Makes sense. Their graphics performance in Windows arm laptops was getting decimated in reviews

Qualcomm uses their own Adreno GPUs, they are different from ARM's Mali which are even worse.

A bit risky. They could find they become a boycott target which could kill adoption. Companies won't want wasted stock, sonmay be risk averse to using them.

A bunch of tech companies do a lot of their work within Israel; a comprehensive secondary boycott would rule out a lot of technology companies.

Not saying it's not a worthy effort, just that I doubt arm are worried about themselves specifically.

wonderful! i want more competition in this space :D

with intel still getting their footing in this market, a 4th representative would be very welcome.

i hope ARM realizes it will be a tough road and the first few generations may not make much money (or lose money).
