- 1_player 5y agoTo be honest I think the desktop question is misleading. x86 to most is a known quantity, there is very few specific reasons to choose ARM instead of x86. But if desktop ARM becomes commonplace, it's a good indicator that ARM is finally competitive for "serious" workloads, and people might invest in it more. As thing stands right now and IMO, it's getting there but Apple having M1 is not enough for me, as CTO, to look into ARM servers, if not as a curiosity.
- aidos 5y agoDepends what your developers are running internally. If they’re already on macs, some will be on M1s soon, and then you’ll have little choice. I’d wager that right now the M1s are about the most bang for buck you can get on desktop machines.
