Replaced the MacMini 2014 (i5 2 core 4 thread) 4Gb we used as a souped up Apple TV with a MacMini M1 8Gb – was curious after all that Virualization stuff, Rosetta 2 and Windows 10 Arm – well itโs a friggin beastโฆ.

#Windows
#M1
Apple Silicon driven MacMini with 8Gb, 8 cores (4big and 4efficiency) is capable of running Intel Mac apps and Arm Mac apps. With parallels it is possible to run Windows 10 Arm virtualized being able to utilize the 8core GPU that the M1 comes with.
