My experience has been that VCs are pattern-matchers, who spent the last 15 years finding founders and #business models which subverted any inefficient, good-faith system, abstracted away inefficiencies with code, and relied on the repeated use of the #software to generate some free #cashflow, which was the justification for the book value, that would be used to offload the speculative asset to public #markets, or subsequent #investors.
Watching this laptop buying guide by @SomeGadgetGuy after the recent announcement of Microsoft's Surface running on the new ARM chips from Qualcomm
Like him, I too am interested in all the new Laptops not only by Microsoft but the many OEMs (HP. Dell, Asus, Acer etc) that will hit the market in a short time, not for the AI features but for our usual day-to-day computing on devices that are now on a different architecture that will have long-lasting battery, run silently, and have plenty of performance for our tasks.
Also, looking into the chips themselves and what specs they're paired with the system RAM depending upon core counts, and performances

At launch it will be a massive pain and totally broken, but if we see SOME traction in the business space, it'll improve fast. Lenovo is already putting some pressure on there.
Just last week, Qualcomm announced better kernel support for Linux, and they've published an experimental debian build.
Microsoft is about to kick off BUILD, and showing new Windows on ARM PCs! AZ is suing Amazon over unfair business practices! iFixit digs even deeper into how much wireless charging sucks. And maybe the Dead Internet theory is true?
