FWIW, they are in general quite accurate with their ballpark performance figures. I expect the actual power/performance curves to be similar to that they showed. Which is interesting, because IIRC on the plots from Nuvia before they were bought their cores had a similar profile. It would be exciting if Qualcomm could have something good for a change.

If we can get an actual Windows on ARM ecosystem started things will get really exciting really quickly.

There still will be a question of porting the bulk of Windows software to Arm.

If Apple can implement Rosetta 2, then surely Microsoft can do it as well (they’ve actually done it, just with terrible performances).
