Hi all,
So I have my new M1 MacBook Air and I’m looking to virtualize Windows and stop carrying around two laptops, now that Windows on ARM supports x64 emulation (albeit horribly, but support nonetheless).
Can anyone that has tried both the new Parallels M1 Preview and UTM (essentially QEMU) tell me what, if any, performance differences I can expect running Windows on ARM? Parallels is obviously backed up by a full-time dev team, however UTM (being QEMU in a shiny skin) supports x86_64 emulation (which would be useful for running legacy versions of Windows separate from Windows on ARM) so I’m leaning towards the latter.
Thanks!
