From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The benchmarks for the M3 have the single core and multicore performances way past similar Intel and AMD chips. Qualcomm's mobile chips are still no where near Apple's mobile chips. I do not believe for a second that Qualcomm will catch up to the M2 on their first release.
M3 is not faster than any AMD or Intel. And PC chips are using very old process nodes. Once Intel gets to 2nm, Apple chips will feel like dumbphone SOCs from the early 2000-s running J2ME applets.
Isn't Intel still stuck on 12nm?
They have moved to 10nm nodes which have density of 7nm nodes of TSMC afaik. They call these nodes Intel 7.
Afaik, Intel is also planning to move Intel 5 and other nodes.
