And this isn't a "Windows PC" in the traditional sense. The reason people run Windows in the enterprise (and for some desktop home uses like games) is still hardware and software compat.

I run it for work because we make windows programs. We use drivers that don't exist on Win-for-ARM yet. So to most people a "Windows PC" is an x64 Windows PC still. The risk for MS if compat isn't good enough for Windows-Arm64 is that people might as well shift from windows entirely if they need new software and harware anyway.
