As of now, there is no possibility for me to run my virtual image of Linux for the Operating Systems course I'm teaching. I guess I'll be using a Dell laptop for this purpose... I don't mind, my 2012 MacBook Air didn't have the required memory to comfortably work with it anyway, so I already resorted to another machine.
**Edit 25 jan. 20121**: Eleanor pointed me towards a gist to get [qemu running on M1](https://gist.github.com/niw/e4313b9c14e968764a52375da41b4278). This means it is possible to run Windows 10 and Ubuntu Server on your ARM Mac!
## So... Is it worth it?
It depends. If you're like me, and you have been waiting for a long time to upgrade, now is the best possible time to take the plunge. However, if you already own a more recent MacBook (I hope it's with a decent keyboard: this one types lovely, compared to my wife's 2017 _butterfly_ keyboard on the MacBook Pro - what a train-wreck), it might be a better idea to wait half a year.
