    I really haven’t been paying attention on the consumer side, are there a ton of systems in the works or out for ARM on windows? Everything I see due to my line of work is business class SKU’s they are not cheap and not game friendly. 😬

      Functionally, it works great and sluses less power. Issue is it can’t be backwards compatible with any software from a traditional processor. So the last 3 decades worth of programs you may have won’t run on an arm chip.

        Sorry, I just meant on the home/consumer market instead of business. I’ve been rocking a Lenovo T14s Gen 6 ARM since it debuted. 😄
