Rosetta 2 lacks support for x86 virtualization, Boot Camp not an Apple Silicon option [u]
Disappointing but predictable. Given the ubiquity of “cloud” or platform agnostic apps - maybe not a big deal.
Still, I see a big impact on development for Microsoft Office AddIns that were previously cross-platform. Not to mention the AI accelerators just now being natively integrated in Excel. I don’t see how that gets ported to Apples hardware.
Native apps are still a huge and important market. Some things just cannot be ported to a web interface economically or with appropriate security (see: Autodesk and every other engineering design platform)
As massive and powerful as Apple is - it simply cannot compete with the wintel software world and that has always been its achilles heal. The only exception being Adobe.
