On M1-based Macs, the Windows 10 Insider Preview launches up to 33% faster, has 20% faster disc performance. Corel says Parallels has performance gains in a variety of metrics on both kinds of Macs, including 38 percent faster resumes from suspension for Windows and Linux six times faster OpenGL graphics and a 25% boost for 2D graphics.
Parallels 17 can only run Windows 10 and 11 from Microsoft, only macOS Monterey and only four flavors of Linux. However, the guest operating system options are more limited on an M1 Mac. And the Intel version officially supports 12 different distros of Linux. You can also run as a guest OS legacy versions of macOS back to OS X Lion. I’m wondering if the vvvv team has an interest in supporting ARM-based computers more (to natively support these powerful machines but also to support more users by fixing the above-mentioned quirks)? Of course, I have no idea how much or little dev time would have to go into it.On an Intel Mac, as in the past you can run older versions of Windows, going all the way back to Windows 2000. And maybe in the future other manufacturers might follow this direction (just guessing here, I don’t have much knowledge about CPU/GPU architectures, licenses, patents etc.)!? So regarding the future: so there is this whole new line of powerful computers coming up. And I wish vvvv would not have this requirement.
vvvv is literally the only reason for me to keep my PC. With this laptop, I was hoping to be able to get rid of my desktop PC but I might hold off on that for a bit after reading about your experiences. And their new laptops are finally very powerful. (Considering my type of work - programming/design/video/photo editing) the operating system alone justifies sticking with Apple as my main computer. In the meantime, I’ve ordered an ARM-based Mac Book Pro.
Yet it’s still a powerful tool I would like to have access to when certain kinds of projects come to me. To be honest I’m not using vvvv much at the moment. Thanks for your recommendations regarding a computer.
