Surprising good for small companies that don’t want to deal with hardware maintenance but are already in the m365 ecosystem.

Updates for drivers, firmware, etc comes right from windows update and not from a 3rd party app like dell/hp/lenovo business-oriented devices do.

    I work for an org with ~1700 Surface Laptop 7 ARM deployed. They are actually really nice. Managing them with Intune is a breeze (including BIOS management), and Windows ARM is actually getting 3rd party app support now (Thanks, Apple!)

    Yes, yes. Microslop, I know. But we are talking end user computing here.

    I have a lot of win32 to deal with so not exactly ARM friendly but with recent hardware cost increases I’m aiming to support ARM by end of year and begin a real transition next year unless intel can pull a rabbit out of the x86 hat again. Panther lake has me cautiously optimistic.
