what macos big sur essentially is: chrome first (safari) play store apps (catalyst for ios apps) linux apps (unix apps homebrew) a lot of folks arent familiar with how identical these software stacks have become over the last few years. especially with apples quality control dropping so steeply to allowing Catalyst apps to be something they mention on stage despite their sorry state as somehow more broken than android apps on chromeos

The excitement about the M1 computers is not about the software, but about the new CPU design, which is faster than any other laptop processor by most measures I've seen. Chromebooks have no equivalent.

  Hardware is most impressive indeed, but software as well, in particular Rosetta 2, the translation works well. Also the hypervisor works well, Parallels desktop flies with arm versions of Ubuntu and Windows.
