Why Apple's move to an ARM Mac is going to be a bumpy road for some
For many it's not going to be a bumpy road, it's going to be a game over.Anyone who has ever been to a developer conference knows how many MacBook Pros are there. If Apple goes ARM, in *many* places MacBook pro will not be a viable alternative anymore. I don't think people who are looking forward to this are aware of how many developers rely on Docker or some other virtualization platform. If MacBook Pro goes ARM, it can retain the name, but for many pros it's going to be completely useless.
And what about TB3? Everyone I see one of these articles, everyone just pretends it doesn't exist. Does Apple have a working ARM TB3 controller? Is it compatible with all peripherals? That would be a major accomplishment.
