Refer answer above.
speaking from a die-hard PC user.
fact only.
- Apple Silicon since M1 = best SoC on planet. for each generation. Total Beast.
- But Apple Strategy dont allow Apple Silicon to dominate the market.
- You want enjoy Apple silicon u must buy apple product. If Apple open and sell ONLY their SoC.. 1st, they will dominate server market. Lowpower, fast. nothing beat that in server market.
- If Apple open to sell only SoC?? Lenovo will build Apple SoC Laptop that is cheaper, more battery, more feature than Apple itself.
- So, no matter how Good is Apple Silicon. you can only use it in thier Product within their OS.
