May 6, 2025
Gregg Hayes comes back on to the show to dive deep into the performance, compatibility, and real-world challenges of running Windows on ARM-powered devices. If you’re curious about battery life, emulation, hardware compatibility, and native ARM app support, this one’s for you.
We cover Greg’s personal experience using a Dell Latitude 7455 with a Qualcomm ARM processor, how emulation has evolved, and the importance of checking software and driver compatibility—especially for legacy devices. We also compare Apple and Microsoft’s approach to platform transitions and evaluate whether ARM is the future of Windows PCs.
