Seems to me Macs, Chromebooks, Raspberry Pis, iOS and Android devices are all based on ARM and easily available.

The argument that ARM based computers aren’t PC’s because they aren’t like x86 machines is self-fulfilling.

It's hard to say an ARM-based Mac isn't a PC.

OTOH, it's the only RISC Unix workstation you can easily get.
