What is in it for us customers? Or shall we get OUR acts together before we get the details from them?Ĭurrently wondering, if it is better to get an Intel based mac, too. Sorry, if they want to engage customers they need to get their acts together and announce what Parallels will be able to do regarding x86/AMD64 code (Windows XP / 7 / 10 /.)! Else customer relying on Windows based tools (I read somewhere, they have millions of customers using Windows through Parallels on Mac?) will either jump ship and buy a Windows computer or get a current Intel based Mac! Both could run afoul their business case for the development efforts they are likely doing right now (at least that's how I understand the announcement/blog post). We (yes, paying clients using Parallels Desktop on Mac, the ones ensuring they get a paycheck even in Corona times) use Parallels also for running older Windows versions (in my case for some stuff down to Windows XP) and of course expect that to run on Apple Silicon as well, no information about that? And here Windows 10 on ARM would be without ANY benefit to all of us! what do they mean with 'Parallels is also amazed by the news from Microsoft about adding support of 圆4 applications in Windows on ARM' - as they for sure now, the ARM based version of Windows 10 ist not freely available to anybody, therefore even if Parallels would support it nobody could get it (at least legally) right now

From my perspective the whole blog post is just very underwhelming information (adapted froma comment I made on the blog post): The issue really is, that they don't really get they act togehter.
