Demands go up, prices go up, demand goes down prices go up
Duopoly, baby!
There's a 600$ Macbook now running ARM. Hopefully it can run Linux soon.
given the pace of asahi Linux on m series macbooks youre going to be waiting for a few years
the person didn't ask for qualcomm/mediatek/nvidia/endless based arm chips, he specifically asked for the new macbook(implied neo) running linux soon because the term "it" was used to refer to it. Arm can already run linux, which would be redundant question to ask.
Linux on Snapdragon isn't in a great place either.
Qualcomm I doubt will be any better, which means if AMD or Intel don't step up in the ARM space, then the best bet is nVidia and their 95% GPU market share.
What?
Apple has their own SoCs based on ARM called "Apple Silicon"
Right, but what does your reply have to do with the comment they replied to
8GB ram though.
We all wish they would run Linux but they never will without Apples blessing.
Price increases when demand goes up, or supply goes down.
It's only cheap when supply exceeds demand. They're cutting supply here.
To win the AI pop, you gotta have a supply of ECC motherboards ready to go when it all gets scrapped.
Idk, covid showed us they won't ever decrease the prices. Economic theory be damned in the age of short term profits over everything
