    Quite the opposite. Well, sort of.

    It’s easy to get a licence, you just need money. Lots of money.

    That’s if you can get a licence. Intel only licensed to AMD because the USA military requires two vendors.

    ARM charges an, err, arm and a leg.

      Intel licensed to Cyrix (now VIA) as well, and it wasn’t the military but IBM that wanted more suppliers

        That was all from unreliable memory. TY for the error correction.
