At a certain point, someone who’s not Apple needs to get serious about ARM CPUs in laptops because the gap between MacBooks and everything else is huge.

If Windows is the blocker, what stops OEMs from pushing Linux?
@atomicpoet Honestly I think we'll have RISC-V laptops running Linux (smth like the SpacemiT K3 except with 2-3 years of progress) mainline before we'll have anything shipping with Linux mainline on ARM out of the box
@atomicpoet (The K3 is the first one that's competitive with mid-range ARM SBCs and older phones and the first one where the architecture has all the features for it to be competitive one day, but it will still take more time for the chip designs themselves to be actually better than ARM)
