I want an ARM MacBook as that implies OS X on ARM which means an iPad Pro should be able to dual boot

- rbanffy 11y agoARM is not magic. I bet that as soon as it performs in the same range as an x86 under OSX, power consumption will be similar. You may feel better the ISA is neater, and that it may be Windows-proof, but that's about all you'll have.
- jodrellblank 11y agoit may be Windows-proof Fear not, Windows runs on ARM and has done for several years. https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/b8/2012/02/09/building-windows-for-the-arm-processor-architecture/ https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/b8/2012/02/09/building-wind...
- rbanffy 11y agoYes, but they'd still need to port some bits and pieces. I don't see Microsoft doing that.
- jodrellblank 11y agoYou think they would't port Windows to run on an ARM MacBook? Do you know they made Windows to run on the Raspberry Pi ( https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/windows-10-for-iot/ https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/windows-10-for-iot/ )? Because I think a MacBook version would have even more backing than that.
