ARM Surface Laptop 7 file paths too long
We just finished a rollout of the Surface laptop 7s with the ARM processor. after a couple of weeks a have a few members of the staff who are ready to throw them out the window because they are running into constant issues with their synced sharepoint library in file explorer telling them they can't save the file because the path is lost since the file path, itself, is too long. We used to be able to work around this by extending the limitation on characters, but this no longer seems to be an option with the ARM computers. I am in desperate need of guidance. I would tell them they can use SharePoint online, but let's be real, this is one of those behaviors that's hard to break.
Unable to access Windows Insider Preview Downloads on MacOS
I am trying to download Windows 11 ARM Insider Preview so I can VM it with VMware Fusion on a Macbook Pro 14 2021 to update a Dell monitor's firmware. I am registered as an Insider which I did prior to relocating to a new country, however I no longer have a Windows PC and cannot proceed to download the Windows 11 ARM ISO officially. Has anybody encountered this issue and have any solutions? Here's a couple of screenshots of what I see: Cheers, Michael
Should arm based surface devices use nvidia processors instead?
This might sound wired. But when I saw the Nintendo switch using a custom tegra based processor that can run mid resource intensive games while giving about 5 hours of battery life out of just a 16 whr battery, it surprised me. I kept searching nvidia’s website and found out that the tegra x1 on shield to is very powerful yet efficient. Although 10 watts may seem a lot, but it’s 20nm compared to today’s 5nm. Nvidia markets them as mobile processors, and scaling it down to 5nm means a lot of efficiency for the same performance, which should even give some headroom for to increase the power by a little margin to get some more performance. I know that the processor has older cpu and gpu but it can be simply made up by using today’s new RTX and arm counterparts.First-ever App Assure AMA on March 16 at 9am PST
