Founding ArmMannerisms - David MannersJul. 15, 2019 |
“By the late 1980s it was clear that ARM could only survive outside Acorn and it was fortuitous that Apple wanted its own microprocessor,” recalls Hermann Hauser founder and CEao of Acorn.
Apple wanted it for a hand-held, pen-based computer called the Newton.
That requirement persuaded Apple into being one of the backers for a new company that would hold all the rights to ARM, which would continue to do the engineering work on the microprocessor and keep it up to date.
