Advanced RISC Machines Ltd.
ARM Ltd

    (ARM) A company formed in 1990 by Acorn Computers
   Ltd., Apple Computer, Inc. and VLSI Technology to market
   and develop the Advanced RISC Machine microprocessor
   family, originally designed by Acorn.

   ARM Ltd. also designs and licenses peripheral chips and
   supplies supporting software and hardware tools.  In April
   1993, Nippon Investment and Finance, a Daiwa Securities
   company, became ARM's fourth investor.  In May 1994 Samsung
   became the sixth large company to have a licence to use the
   ARM processor core.

   The success of ARM Ltd. and the strategy to widen the
   availability of RISC technology has resulted in its chips now
   being used in a range of products including the Apple
   Newton.  As measured by an independent authority, more ARM
   processors were shipped than SPARC chips in 1993.  ARM has
   also sold three times more chips than the PowerPC
   consortium.
