Useful news. I just RDP into a jump box if I need something Windows from my M1 macbook, but having a subset of that available on the same machine would be really helpful.

Parallels works great for running the ARM64 versions of Windows as well as Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, and Alma Linux. I’ve also coerced it to run FreeBSD and OpenBSD as well with a little bit of effort. Ironically I haven’t gotten NetBSD to work on it yet.

UTM is also very good, and it has the ability to emulate other architectures. It’s not quite as performant or polished as Parallels though.
