Low-key hoping for the success of Snapdragon processor for Windows laptops. Since Intel and AMD laptops have horrible battery life.

          wrong...X elite is 40W or 80W , while M3 is 18W and M4 20W
          So its embarrassing to compare your top,not binned fully fledge SoC with the base M3 that goes into fanless design and still barely compete,on paper

            so the spy ware that already is win11 now gets the more insidious Recall [which gsm arena just totally skirted around]. i'm guessing this will give the fruit license to implement that spy ware back door they've been wanting to activate in their os for a few generations now. it's all getting so creepy. i won't even get started on the the prices.

                    It'll be interesting to see the new MacBook Air getting released later this year - Snapdragon X Elite is designed to compete with M3 but not M4, and seeing some news about how the base M4 iPad Air has 12GB of RAM soldered onto its chip (but 4GB disabled, making the usable RAM 8GB) makes me think that Apple is ready to up its laptop game to compete with Microsoft as well.
