- fragmede 4y agoThanks to the ARM version of the Microsoft Surface, there's an ARM port of Windows 10 via Insider Preview Builds. What this means though, is that I can run x86 Windows binaries on my M1 Mac though Parallels Desktop (haven't tried other VM programs such as virtualbox). Unsurprisingly CPUz has a bit of trouble running and is unable to give much information, saying the CPU name is Apple Silicon, the spec is ARMv8, and the clock speed of 3.0 Ghz, but most everything is blank.

Imagine reading this in 2015 :D
