> I kinda agree with Intel. While Apple's M1/M2(..3-4) are arguably very usable (also) as desktop chips, What do you mean "arguably"? They are top performers.

> I kinda agree with Intel. While Apple's M1/M2(..3-4) are arguably very usable (also) as desktop chips, What do you mean "arguably"? They are top performers. The m2-based 2023 Macbook Air outperforms the intel-based 2019 Macbook Pro, which was already a beast of a machine. > Apple has poured in so much resources to make this happen, that only a very few company is able to do. I don't agree. We saw the likes of Raspberry Pi release the Raspberry Pi 400, which is is already a nice ARM-based desktop and is a battery and a monitor shy of being an ARM-based laptop. They didn't had to pour any significant volume of resources to get that to happen. Also, nowadays most computing needs are met with handheld devices, and some high-end models already ship with at least as much RAM and sometimes more computational resources than some mid-end intel laptops. I would argue that the only thing standing between ARM CPUs being massively adopted in consumer desktop and laptops is Microsoft releasing a Windows version that supports them.
