> 1. There is now a completely untapped resource on your SOC.
If you’ve ever used a desktop PC with an Intel CPU and a dedicated GPU, you’ve also have a completely untapped resource in your machine (unless you were rocking a Xeon or some such). It’s not entirely illogical when you consider the benefits of economies of scale.
What matters is whether the experience you can get with the hardware you do use is superior to competing offerings. Have Apple Silicon Macs reached that point for Linux users? Probably not, unless you have very specific requirements and are willing to live on the bleeding edge, but the case is starting to appear for some specific needs.
And of course, they are working on drivers for the GPU and other hardware.
