- wyldfire 3y agoFrom the article: > Regardless, the primary purpose of the Linux demo was to showcase that Linux was working on the Snapdragon Elite X as well – that it’s not just for Windows – as Qualcomm has aims of getting the SoC into Linux laptops as well. Some person on the internet [1] says "The good news is that the exclusivity of Microsoft's Qualcomm 8cx series has ended. Moving forward, we will be able to encounter the 8cx series in a greater variety of form factors. For instance, there are plans to incorporate the 8cx Gen4 into Chromebooks as well." I'm not sure if exclusivity of 8cx Gen4 is different from X Elite though. [1] https://x.com/Tech_Reve/status/1670038184405901313?s=20 https://x.com/Tech_Reve/status/1670038184405901313?s=20
