I hope this stays a rumor. While I certainly prefer Mac OS to Windows, there's still some development left to be done under Windows (Windows CE based barcode scanners) and there are still more games available for Windows than for the Mac.
Right now I can do the windows development in VMWare at acceptable speeds and the gaming in bootcamp at excellent speeds.
If they move to ARM, that means no more gaming with Bootcamp and very, very slow development if VMWare should decide to even begin emulating Intel processors.
This would possibly force me to move away from Macs again which I would really, really hate to have to do. Please, Apple, think this through before rushing it.
- AllenKids 16y agoI think this is just a far fetched rumor. But, didn't Microsoft just demo Windows running on ARM and supposedly Windows 8 will be native on both architectures?
