Can I ask what issues did you have after the initial hassle of people recompiling for the M-series?
For me the insane battery life/computing power ratio massively outweighs any possible advantages for staying with Intel
- vbezhenar 3y agoFor example I can't run Windows XP in a VM with acceptable performance.
- drawfloat 3y agoI can run Black mesa at 60FPS inside a Windows 11 VM on my Macbook M2. That suggests performance is not actually that bad?
- vbezhenar 3y agoProbably because your Windows 11 VM runs ARM version of Windows and I need x86 version of Windows.
- INGSOCIALITE 3y agoi was in the same situation with the switch to silicon. I have some obscure industry software that i use on a rare basis that only runs on x86 - i just bought a cheap thinkpad (x220 i think) and have XP on there. silicon (m2) is worth its weight in gold to me for the battery life and functionality.
