Speaking for myself, it’s not an ARM desktop PC what I need, but an ARM server. Make those highly available and then I’ll start developing/porting my code on ARM.

It's hard to get from usual companies like Lenovo, Dell, HP etc.

I just want ARM64 with ECC and the ability to put quite few NVMe inside (U2 or M2, doesn't matter that much)

I've seen those, but they cost a fortune. Even the smallest 32core CPU with 128GB RAM and a couple of nvme ssds costs more than 10k.

AWS has them: https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/graviton/, and you can run Lambdas with ARM.

Disclaimer: I work for Amazon (not in AWS).

Microsoft had preview for ARM64 Azure VMs earlier this year. Not sure if they've gone beyond that.

Pretty much all the cloud providers have ARM options these days, even the smaller ones.
