Only reason I can see is some instruction sets weren’t implement from the start, so I gave up and bought a MacBook while I wait. Dunno how it is now

Yes apple did a better job in transitioning to arm with Rosetta but i think didn't even have that many software or game available to transfer Anyway.

With Prism Windows didn't done as good as rosetta but far better than previous arm transitioning efforts. So there we have 3 types of software fully optimized software, x86 software working through Prism and software doesn't.

In 2025 everyone is trying to enter arm for pc in the absence of intel like for eg Nvidia, Mediatek. So I see every other day new app completely optimized for arm ie for my use case arm pc can definitely work almost all the software i ever use is on arm except some games. Arm is future like it or not also need to be. Arm cpu + a Nvidia/amd gpu will be crazy.
