What I am saying, and you clearly don't seem understand, is that it would be highly unlikely for SEC to go after NVIDIA if all they did was not renew Apple's ARM license, if they didn't do the same to anyone else. Why is that so hard to comprehend?
Unless NVIDIA plans to ship with ARM Windows or a custom Linux package, neither of which will appeal to a large number of consumers, I doubt they would try to go it their own on PCs.
I'm aware of the chipset history, and how horrible NVIDIA chipsets were.
I highly doubt SEC would even raise a finger to help Apple, since Apple isn't eaxtly on the US Governments list of most loved companies. Apple's already dealing with several government (US and otherwise) anti-competitive cases on their own.
