It uses the iphone processor (which I think still might be one of those Mchips?) so I think it was ok to be unsure. | ||

The M line was derived from the A line in the phones, and the individual cores are generally the same (though not in the same year). Counts, accelerators, other stuff on package/die is custom. I think it was a fair question too. Even if things should be capable it was always possible the feature would be disabled in hardware or software somehow. And with iPhones never running VMs as far as I know, we didn’t know if it was capable at all. | ||

The odds of it not running at all were low but the performance is the real factor for whether it can _practically_ run a windows VM. | ||
