1:03 - Apple already expressed their willingness to support Windows one year ago to Ars Technica

 

Quote

As for Windows running natively on the machine, "that's really up to Microsoft," he said. "We have the core technologies for them to do that, to run their ARM version of Windows, which in turn of course supports x86 user mode applications. But that's a decision Microsoft has to make, to bring to license that technology for users to run on these Macs. But the Macs are certainly very capable of it."

Riley always does the Techlinked sources

For all we know he likes doing it

James HATES posting tech news sources. Has since he was a boy... /s 

 

I'm the channel manager for Techlinked, so other than editing (assorted editors), or writing on Mondays (that's usually Jon), or lining up sponsors (that's the business team), I do everything else 🤠

It is, yeah. The exclusivity deal sounds like it's ending soon. It looks like it started in 2016 as well.

XDA Developers also spoke with people familiar with the matter who said that Qualcomm's exclusivity deal with Microsoft for Windows on Arm is set to expire soon though an exact date for when this will happen has yet to be revealed.

I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

I will find your mentions of Ikea or Gnome and I will /s post.
