Samsung does an Apple with its first Snapdragon X Elite laptop, suggesting the new Arm-based Windows machines aren't going to be a cheap alternative to x86 (www.pcgamer.com)

Interesting. Samsung making a bold move here, but one that could make sense.

That’s not what I meant. Microsoft has been working on Windows ARM, sure, but has anyone else been working on Windows ARM? As far as I know you can’t even get Firefox on ARM.

I suppose that they have a compatibility layer, but it’s nowhere near the performance of Rosetta 2.

Ah well, Firefox definitely has a Windows arm native build available on their website but yeah most applications certainly won't

Oh yeah, I stand corrected. I'm surprised I didn't see it before.
