Former M* team members are now at Qualcomm and HP/Dell/Lenovo will ship their Arm laptops later this year, including Windows 11 and upstream Linux support.
- a_wild_dandan 3y agoIf they can match the battery life, then I might switch back to a Linux laptop. I’m so sick of Apple’s anti-competitive, anti-consumer practices.
- meowkit 3y agoI’m a windows dev and dogfooding the latest OS/hardware. The upcoming ARM devices + OS standby changes massively improve battery life. I also own an M1 and have been passively comparing, much closer now.
- ThinkBeat 3y agoDell and Microsoft has been shipping ARM laptops for years. Creating an ARM cpu is ok but will they copy the entire M* architecture?
