so... if qcom included a "modem" on their server board would arm be happy? well not happy, but would it satisfy arms interpretation of the contract?

I could totally see every single server board saddled with some obsolete appendix of a cell baseband to satisfy the letter of some sweet contract qualcom had with arm saving the company a fair few million.

Possible. But more than likely they will meet in the middle and ARM will get something and QCOM will get something. But no where near what either is asking. But qcom does have a stronger position.
