    On the contrary, the clown show is obviously just beginning.

    No ARM and Intel is gearing up to eat Nvidia's GPU lunch. Could be a rough ride for the green team.

    Not a surprise in a turn of events since they had yet to receive approval from antitrust regulators late into the process ...

    NVIDIA gets to keep a 20 year license from ARM in exchange for the 1.25b termination fee.

    I'd like to stand corrected if I'm wrong, but I doubt one is in exchange for the other in the strict sense. Afaik pre-payments are usually non refundable for such deals/contracts. Else 1.25b even for 20 years sounds extremely steep for intellectual property.

    It's probably just a "gentlemen's agreement" that NVIDIA will (and be able to) keep its 20-year license with ARM no matter what happens in the future.

    The profit record won't surprise me one bit.

    I think nVidia will be fine, but I won't be surprised if ARM are the one in trouble in a few years with the rising of risc-v.

    I'm guessing the UK job commitment is null and void with an IPO, if so the UK really screwed itself by not just embracing the merger but demanding the Softbank job guarantees stood.

    Maybe it's time to have an "ARM Rollercoaster" thread.
