What I will find fascinating is that if Linux does get a major foothold this might be the way that we actually transition off of x86 because of having all these different translation layers and then we can start creating new and interesting CPU architectures that would be more efficient than stuff that’s been sitting from the 80s but still having the backwards compatibility through translation layers

Despite being ARM CPUs and Linux based machines, I’m pretty sure most of what they play is Windows x86 binaries.
