No thanks, as powerful as it looks.

I prefer to not be locked to one OS, happy to let my phone do that but not my PC.

it's not really a PC,
it's like a bit bigger phone
they call it mac mini
and this one is a just a bigger one
mac minimax name is already taken by our forum member so they figured out this funny studio name
studio with macs studio is a macs studio studio 😉
macs max studio sounds so much better 🤣

People are already working on getting *nix and Windows to boot natively on M1 Macs.. 😀

But even at the moment, a virtualized Windows 1x for ARM runs excellent on M1.
Even if legacy x86/x64 applications are run.

So let's don't underestimate the significance of what Apple did here.
The whole design is (r)evolutionary.

As far as I understand, both CPUs and GPUs can access the same memory at full speeds.
And then there's the built-in interconnect to othet dies..

Hopefully, other manufacturers will recognize that potential and create ARM-based motherboards for PC.
This would once again make things interesting! 😃👍

Perhaps giving birth to a new wild wild west PC ecosystem like that of the 80s/90s.
Would be interesting. With lots of proprietary, yet creative solutions and copy cats at every corner. 😁

Maybe AMD and NVidia will be forced to lower prices. Apple and Intel incoming. 😀

But can it run Crysis?
