>teaching MIPS as the most elegant example of a RISC processor

elegant as in simplified to the bone, but also a market failure compared to not so reduced ARM

haha, nice try Imagination Technologies, you arent giving anything for free. Later on in the blog post is a mere mention of all the proprietary IP, patents and licenses they are NOT granting/licensing. This is a huge win for Imagination, somehow they managed to convince a ton of universities to base their curriculum on Img proprietary design, this is as big as Nvidia "helping out" with heterogenous computing courses resulting in universities universally (hah) ignoring OpenCL, and exclusively teaching proprietary CUDA.
