new ARM processors will start a new trend(equivalent to Apple M2 cip performance per wat)from next year…maybe it is wise to hold your horses for a while

    They already exists. They’re called Chromebooks 🤣

    Also a Linux user. The biggest advantage of having an arm cpu on par to the M2 would be power consumption. I am pretty much forced to be on a MacBook at work for software development and I am blown away at the longevity of the battery. I want to install Linux on my macbook so bad and run some c/c++ compilation and runtime benchmark with some of my projects. Unfortunately that could get me in trouble 😔

      I don’t consider Chromebooks to be real computers… They’re tablets with a OS designed for using a keyboard and touchpad. I say that as someone who used to work for a school and repaired laterally hundreds of chromebooks. Everything about chromebooks has more in similarity with a decent tablet than it does a computer.
