About the next ARM-based macbook....
#33
They call it Apple Silicon Macs and not Arm CPU Macs for a reason. The chip contains a lot more than the processing cores.

If we'd just be talking about the instruction set, it would be possible to run Android and iOS apps, too. But I haven't seen that happening.

The graphics will probably be the weakest link anyway, kind of doubtful for any gaming scenario.

We can only hope that the Hackintosh people will try their luck on using the Raspberry Pi or something, but a lot of stuff needs to be emulated anyway which makes it slower still, while the OS is designed to run on the M1 which Apple claims is the 'Fastest Processor in the World' or something.
