Why would you want to do that? Do you like the hardware that much, and also that much more than just an M2 (soon M3) running Asahi?

Linux in a VM would work with the usual caveats. Periphery like the built-in webcam most likely won't work. Getting codecs and DRM to run will be pain and you'll be back to use macOS for that quickly (but that's just standard pain of ARM Linux).

Because I don't like MacOS and my understanding is that Asahi has issues with: * USB-C Displays * Thunderbolt / USB4 * Touch ID

Touch ID is the least of the problems, but the other two are more serious.

Valid. USB-C displays are on the horizon, the rest will take significant time (and might never materialize, it's difficult to reverse engineer).

Then spending thousands on modern MacBook will be a subpar experience, no matter how you do it. But yes, Linux will run OK inside a VM on a MacBook.

		I know. I wish Apple for once did the nice gesture and provide documentation. Whoever is happy with MacOS, uses MacOS, whoever is happy with Linux (or BSD) uses Linux. I guess a great deal of devs/techies would migrate to Macbooks. I don't know if it is corporate greediness or corporate stupidity.
