Earlier quoted context omitted.

Intel themselves writes a ton of the software for their own hardware that makes in into the Linux kernel.

Intel is not the only hardware in an Intel CPU-based laptop.

They also famously manufacture the most stable and performant network cards, wifi card, thunderbolt controllers, etc. And provide drivers for Linux.

Plenty of components for quivalents of which Avahi struggles with on MacBooks.

sounds like a baseless claim frankly. they are still better. better than previous gen, essentially better than competition. only the latest intel cpu are beginning to get "comparable" with previous m-series cpu.

>sounds like a baseless claim frankly. >only the latest intel cpu are beginning to get "comparable" with previous m-series cpu. I am comparing ARM CPU against ARM CPU Core. Which is why it needs to there to the ARM Spec specific to ARM ISA. And those are standard ARM CPU design tested across industry benchmarks. Not sure what is baseless about it.

The m6 “only” being a die shrink is no good reason to shun it.

It’s still an improvement.
