    Now we just need Apple M* hardware that can be bought like a regular laptop or PC parts, but that’s never happening sadly.

      I wonder what in the Arm world compares GPU-wise with what Apple is doing…

        Nvidia has Arm drivers for their GPUs, not sure about AMD. It should be possible to build an Arm laptop with a dedicated GPU.

        Edit: BTW there are already Arm PCs you can buy which have PCIe, and can use (at least Nvidia) desktop GPUs.

            I think the situation is different for their mobile hardware. IIRC the Nintendo Switch’s Nvidia Tegra chip had an official Mesa driver, which made it really easy for modders to get Linux and Android working on the machine.

          Wait really? I can build an ATX Arm system? I’m a SBC whore but I never even considered a full desktop build…

            You can even get RISC-V ITX boards now.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
