Apple’s ARM Macs Will Ditch Support For Windows Via Boot Camp

Apple’s ARM Macs Will Ditch Support For Windows Via Boot Camp

While some users prefer Windows over macOS, we can't deny that Apple's hardware and attention to detail beat all. While officially Apple does not allow you to install Microsoft's desktop operating system on a Mac, we have always been able to install it on the machine via Boot Camp. However, it looks like ARM Macs will not be able to run Windows via Boot Camp.

Say Goodbye To Windows On ARM-based Macs As Boot Camp Won't Be Able to Do It Unless Microsoft Decides So

Tim Cook took the stage at the WWDC 2020 keynote, officially announcing that the company will be moving to its in-house, custom silicon in the future. The transition will take up to two years but we will see the first Mac with ARM-based chip later this year.  The Verge reports that Boot Camp will not run Windows on ARM-based Mac when the machines will be launched. However, it might be possible in the future.

The possibility lies in the hands of Microsoft and if it is willing to make the functionality available for all users. The software giant only licenses Windows 10 on ARM to PC manufacturers so they can preinstall it on their devices. The operating system is not designed for anyone to use it freely or even license it. Here's what the Microsoft spokesperson has to say on the subject.

Microsoft only licenses Windows 10 on ARM to OEMs,” says a Microsoft spokesperson in a statement to The Verge. We asked Microsoft if it plans to change this policy to allow Boot Camp on ARM-based Macs, and the company says “we have nothing further to share at this time.

Apple did not announce the deduction of the feature on stage. While Microsoft's Office Suite of apps will run on ARM-based Macs, Boot Camp will not be part of the mix. However, the details are still scarce and hopefully, it can change in the future so we can't be too certain on the fact that you won't be able to run Windows on an ARM-based Mac. There can be tools developed to make it happen but we're not certain when.

Rumor: 14-inch MacBook Pro to launch in 2021

Rumor: 14-inch MacBook Pro to launch in 2021

blognet   Monday, May 11, 2020   Comment  

There have been a lot of rumors about a 14.1-inch MacBook Pro, and many expected it to appear in the spring when the 13-inch was due for an update. But the 2020 MacBook Pro is now on sale, and it featured no larger screen nor any design changes to speak of. One Twitter leaker says to expect the 14-inch to appear next year.



The @L0vetodream account has been on a bit of a tear with leaks and rumors in the last few months. Having correctly predicted the iPad Pro, Magic Keyboard and iPhone SE launches months ahead of plans, the anonymous account has released a tumult of information about various upcoming Apple products from game controllers to bezel-less Touch ID iPads.

At least based on his track record, the account’s “dreams” are really advance information of Apple’s latest product plans. We still need to wait for more of the predicted products to come to fruition to know for sure though.

Nevertheless, today @L0vetodream tweeted that the 14-inch MacBook Pro is set for 2021.

Whilst Apple did not replace the 13-inch with a 14-inch redesign this spring like they did with the 15->16-inch MacBook Pro in the fall, the 14-inch laptop is still believed to be forthcoming. There had been some speculation that the laptop would ship later in 2020, perhaps with a 14-inch mini-LED display as a higher-end option. However, prospective customers may want to adjust their expectations assuming this leak is accurate and the machine is not set to arrive until next year.

The ‘new’ 13-inch MacBook Pro lacks most of the innovations that the 16-inch introduced, like improved speakers and microphones or the thinner bezels around the display. It really seems like Apple prioritized removing the butterfly keyboard from the lineup over all else. Outside of the keyboard change, the 13-inch MacBook Pro offered little more than a spec bump, and you only get new-generation CPUs on the $1799 and higher configurations. So, a bigger redesign in the form of a 14-inch form factor (which shouldn’t be bigger physically than the 13-inch due to the shrinking bezels) could easily supplant the 13-inch as soon as it is available. It just seems like that the transition is probably still a year away.

Note L0vetodream has previously predicted that Apple will revive the 12-inch MacBook next year, and it will be Apple’s first Mac to run on an Apple-designed ARM chip. That’s a whole separate chain of rumors that could start to see validation next month at WWDC; Apple may want to announce the architecture transition ahead of time to let developers get started on migrating their applications
