Can it do the x86 TSO trick? There won't be much of a windows-on-arm ecosystem until Microsoft can fix their slow-ass emulation.

Pretty easy to cheer when it's crypto. But if we are onto the slippery slope of canceling utility customers who don't use their power judiciously, let's go ahead and cut off a few more customers while we are at it: 1) Anybody
