alt Hacker Newsall apple needs, to kill surface laptops entirely, is to enable windows to run on m series laptops without issues.
I don't know why the downvotes, maybe someone can chime in if there is more to surface laptop? because i am using one laptop, and much prefer to use windows on M4 macbook pro instead.

Oh man I'd pay premium for a sleek device like this that CAN'T run Windows or Mac OS. Just a mere thought of being able to run pure Linux on that sweet sweet apple silicon with full driver support makes my juices flowing.
wine already runs on Mac so really they would just need something like dxvk to have a package similar to proton
To be honest if Apple wanted to they could work with valve to make gaming on Mac a reality
To some degree it should already be possible with wine + dxvk + moltenvk
I believe you’re being downvoted because your logic is from 20+ years ago when Windows compatibility was important.
Also the era when companies were trying to “kill” each other’s devices is no longer a thing.
They all get the reality it’s a multi device world and they need to work within it.
I assume you’re downvoted because Microsoft has to want that.
Who cares about Windows anymore?
Kids are happy with iOS/Android devices
Google docs solves 90% of Office use cases
I’m not sure that many people want Windows badly enough they would get an Apple device and remove the original OS so they could run Windows.
From my personal experience, Widows users in general don’t mind Windows, but, definitely, nobody I have ever met finds it more desirable than macOS.
