    Already are. Several manufacturers are delving into the ARMs race (get it?). They can’t yet quite compete on the same level as Apple’s silicon in every metric, but a few more years, and they’ll likely have general feature parity.

      An ARM laptop that can run mainline Linux out of the box and performs at an M1 level or better would be phenomenal. Sign me up.

        Right? We’re not there yet, but I bet we will be in the next 5-10 years.

            I meant more that they’d be at feature parity with whatever current gen Apple is on. They’re already close or better in some metrics, but Apple silicon is still the clear overall winner.
