It would never survive a challenge. Pure stock-pumping speculation.

The article says the offer is for 400p a share. They're currently trading around 250p a share. This represents a 60% premium. Given that ARM is very close to its 52 week high, at 400p it's a no-brainer for the shareholders. And people say Microsoft is evil. =/

No-brainer for shareholders, maybe, but US regulatory agencies are supposed to act in support of taxpayers in general. If they do their jobs, this would never make it out of the gate.

A generous offer = evil?

Well Apple is definately more evil than microsoft. They criticize microsoft for having a monopoly and yet you can only develop apps that they approve of and their pcs can be run only on their proprietery hardware. At least microsoft lets you choose what hardware to buy. I am getting sick of apple. I hope google and micirosoft trump them.
