@Rerin YL The problem with Microsoft is 99% off their ecosystem is x86 and they only have "one device" running on arm. For anyone to recompile code for Microsoft they would need to give up x86 all over the OEMS. Difference between Apple and Microsoft, Apple controls their own hardware and software while Microsoft does not. Microsoft has way too many partners and licenses for OEM's on x86 to give all that up for arm native apps. Remember Microsoft does not control 90% of the hardware market just the software. What you speak of can be done with Apple because they are switching their desktop line over to arm. Apple created their own ISA system while Microsoft is still lagging behind. The whole Apple line will be ARM while Microsoft is not even close to being a hybrid. This is why Microsoft keeps failing at these attempts.

So a machine built specifically by Microsoft to run Windows, ends up demonstrating why Linux is such a superior OS.

Honestly, with how Google has handled Chrome OS recently, plus some of the larger issues with the direction of Chrome as a browser in general, I think Windows on ARM as an alternative solution to Chrome OS has plenty of merit. If Microsoft can sort out the emulation side of things (AMD64 emulation should help a lot), and the price of the hardware can come down to reasonable levels for larger mainstream adoption, I can see app developers getting on board with the idea and every app that adds native support for ARM will only make the proposition more appealing for the average user of a laptop or tablet who just needs to do a bit of web browsing or document editing and not things like high end gaming or 4K video editing. People can get the familiarity and flexibility of Windows with the portability and endurance of a typical ARM tablet - assuming all the stars line up. I'd personally much prefer to use that as a second device over something as locked down as an iPad, though I know I'm hardly in the majority.

The killer feature of chromebooks and chromeos is that they're now easily set up to run Linux alongside Chrome. You just flick a switch in on the settings window, and it installs a containerized version of Linux (default version is named Crostini). Dieter mentions that Android runs on Chromebooks, but the Linux on your chromebook is the killer feature for many. .I see that the Surface Pro X does actually support an ARM-native version of Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). WSL is not as flexible or well-integrated as Linux on chromeos, but it could be a good feature in Surface Pro X machines. I didn't hear Dieter talk about it at all, maybe I missed that.

Provisioning (that's the name of setting up devices for first use) is a pain. Especially on Windows 10 given you have to do this every 6 months due to "Windows-as-a-service" upgrades which are pretty much a reinstall-like wizard. Do you know how many times you have to set up a Chromebook or a tablet after an upgrade? None: they upgrade seamlessly. You do it the one time you buy it or factory reset it, then all it does is redex (recompile dynamic files) And the real problems with W10 provisioning are related to privacy and cloud accounts being WAY too obscure. Every single one of Windows's updates gets you a different flow, with one more setting to opt out from (or a harder time doing it) and new tricks to force you into logging with a Microsoft account vs Local. Granted, Google also nags you with cloud accounts but at least on those ecosystems (Android OR Chrome OS) there are clear benefits and everybody already does it. I am yet to find a super-duper important reason to use an MS account - even bitlocker cloud key storage or the freemium apps on their store aren't worth it (thank god). There aren't "killer features" for me. Then again, I don't use these devices in a corporate environment nor depend heavily on OneDrive.

This is a very well considered perspective, thank you! But perhaps you might be a bit too conservative in how well the Surface Pro X could be a great chromebook. I have a ton of different devices and I'm a big chromebook fan. But it is very frustrating to own a Pixelbook and Pixel Pen because it is this > < close to being a great solution. CrOS support for the stylus is nearly non-existent. There's a single crucial Windows-only app that I need that I can't use on the Pixelbook... and neither CrossOver for Android nor WINE in the Linux container are adequate solutions for those one-off Windows apps. ...but with the Surface Pro X those issues go away. Yes, the Pro X raises different issues, but I think that the net result pushes in the Pro X's favor.

Why the limit of Surface Pro X comparison as a Surface Pro 7 would fit the bill better? And agree it's more a niche product then a full laptop. As my Surface Pro 6 can be had at half the price without all the limitations mentioned. As the custom ARM SQ-1 is still to limiting. Waiting and more exciting to see a Surface Pro 8 with new Ryzen 4000 Apu laptop chip inside.

WHAT! From where did you get it? Who sell it for that price?
@deankaltsas4 жыл бұрын
@@mobbak 450 discount and I also had a credit of 200. I think it's still at 3 or 400 discount for the 8ram and 256 HD on the Microsoft store

Not everyone uses the Adobe suite of apps... That's not the killer. It's that it won't run any programme you throw at it, just some

What is the benefit to using Google as your default search engine instead of Bing?

Didn't windows do this before with those RT from sometime ago and then went to pentium gold, and I think Verge love the Go, lots of experimentation so far, and even ryzen as well, alas not the 4000 series, can't wait for 4800. So what they really needed is an arm laptop with chromium edge.
@wrongturn_w4 жыл бұрын
It's not by accident. Microsoft moved edge to chromium and bought github who built the electron framework (that builds apps on top of chromium) for that same reason. Next up, chromium based windows apps.

Surface Pro X would be a great device for just $600 (including the keyboard and pen). A _real_ Google version of this the "Lenovo Duet 5 Chromebook" which is a 12" Detachable ARM Tablet jus like the Pro X, only costs $400 in total with all the accessories included.
