The reason they can natively run iOS apps is because the new Apple M1 is based on the Arm instruction set, just like your smartphone, instead of the x86-64 instructions used in Macs and Windows PCs. Confusingly, though, the Surface RT didn’t run the also-new-at-the-time Windows 8. We know what we’re getting with Intel.

Or should I say, I haven’t seen a great operating model for seamlessly managing both Windows and Linux. For instance, there was the whole Windows vs. automobile industry meme that was going around a few years ago. That proved to be more of apples to oranges comparison, but I think the OS example is a good comparison.
