I’m excited about the Windows release bringing standardization and solid hardware in this area. Apple Silicon is locked down, so having a traditional bootloader (which Windows Boot is) on ARM will be great for linux adoption in this space — which is really what I see for these devices going forward.
- angulardragon03 3y agoI’m super confused - Microsoft has tried this both in 2012 and 2016 (with Surface RT, and then again with Windows 10 on ARM). Neither of these turned out to be great for Linux adoption in this space (to my knowledge) - what leads you to believe that this time will be different?
