      Gord forbid those binaries want to do any actual work though…

          Windows on ARM will run x86 binaries. But if these binaries require any real processing power, they choke or run really really slowly.

            I guess it depends on how you define “real processing power”. I run Windows on Arm on my Mac Studio through Parallels. I installed Steam and played Civ 4 and it’s great. Sure, it’s an old game but it runs smoothly.
