        Qualcomm sucks. Just my opinion.

        They like to do patent and licensing shenanigans. So this situation felt like justice.

          Wasn’t it ARM doing the licensing shenanigans here? I’ve got no real skin in the game for either, but companies with IP to license seem to have become a commodity, and price themselves out of practicality. For that reason I tend to like when they lose their battles. On this one specifically, I was hoping for Qualcomm to win, but only because they’re cranking out these incredible laptop processors, showing Intel what a windows laptop on ARM can be - fast, cool, all day battery.
