I love windows and wanted to give it a try, but the lack of OLED option is bothering me.

Can you comment about the battery life and the "traditional x86" workloads? Does it use a just-in-time compilation? (I haven't looked at the details yet)

Can you dual boot to a Linux arm64 distribution?

My Dell XPS15 has an OLED, fwiw. It's a couple years old now but the latest models still have it (if you buy a 4K screen, anyway).

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't buy dells anymore, too many problems with the BIOS.

I'll stick to Lenovo for a while!

It's a caching JIT that'll squirrel away the translations to use across program invocations, and even shared between different programs in the case of .dlls.
