I really wish Apple to stick an A-series chip in a MacBook Pro with an Intel co-processor.

Best of both worlds.

Don't need x86? Don't spin up the Intel chip, doing something that requires x86, spin it on up.

This way you get software compatibility with the power sipping of the ARM CPU.

Been there done that.

I had a PowerMac 6100/60 with the DOS Compatibility card that had its own sound chip, video controller and optionally RAM.

My 6100/60 had 24MB of RAM and the card had 32MB of RAM.

Before that, I had an LCII with a ‘//e card.

I doubt that modern Apple would ship a hybrid x86/Arm laptop though.
