    Who cares? You can buy performant arm64 laptops and servers. HPC is GPUs.

      > You can buy performant arm64 laptops and servers From? Apple doesn't count due to the extremely narrow usability of their software and the complexity of using other software on their hardware.

        It sounds like the Surface Pro 10 will be a good example. Early reviews of the Snapdragon X Elite sound promising. It wouldn't take much for others to start making competitive offerings as well.

      Not all software is compatible with arm64. Specifically I would be worried about attempting to run Windows applications not compiled for arm64, for which there are many. The compatibility layer Windows ships comes at a significant performance impact.
