Re:Apple unveils M1, its first system-on-a-chip for portable... by zeristor on Tuesday November 10, 2020 @06:08PM (#25053320)
I missed that, I assumed virtualisation was dependent on Intel VT.

Then again I would have expected them to have discussed it as much as the video editing.

I am guessing that they’d need a M2 type chipset for accessing more RAM for that. Or maybe they’ve got a new way to do virtualisation since that is such a key thing these days.

Edit: thanks for pointing that out though, that’s why I mentioned it

And the mentioned Virtio here:

How well this fits in with current virtualisation would be interesting to find out; I guess this will be for a later version of Big Sur, with a new beefier M2 chip.
