Linaro: the latest in the ARM and Atom battle
June 8, 2010
Usually when two companies initiate a joint venture or work together, it is often casually referred to as the two companies getting in bed together. Last week, a veritable orgy was announced. ARM, Freescale, IBM, Samsung, ST-Ericsson and Texas Instruments announced that they are creating a company, Linaro, to provide better distribution and tools for Linux.
Reading between the lines, this looks like it is all going to be ARM-based. The first release is optimized for ARM’s Cortex-A family, the quote in the release is from ARM’s VP of corporate development, and all the companies in the announcement have significant investment in ARM-based products.
