Group id #1097 : ARM

Can anyone confirm their group name is written in capital letters, and if what does it stand for?

The name is the acronym of Acorn Risc Machine (Acorn Archimedes)= ARM ;)

I have noticed that ARM entry has been changed to Acorn Risc Machine (aka ARM). Despite the fact that the group name was an acronym, it has basically never been used with its extended form and mainly used as ARM. Should we revert back to ARM? Nobody knows the group with the other form.

Reverted, as far as I know they never called themselves Acorn RISC Machine, just ARM. It's explained in the Trivia filed what it stands for but it's not even a AKA for them. Unless it's found out in any production they actually named themselves with the long form, that is.

And "Danzig" means Gdansk, not to be confused with "ranzig" which means "rancid"! scnr :D
