Exactly. Thanks to raspberry pis and other ARM SBCs there’s been a lot of ARM native support on Linux. Windows really hurt themselves with their initial ARM support.

Good luck making that work with Windows. If it does its not going to be profitable as Microsoft will eat your arm.
I would love to see one of these running Linux but I don’t see that happening realistically

Windows already works on ARM, but some X86 programs are still a little slow. The Snapdragons previously used weren't as fast as the Apple silicon too, so that didn't help. The original Surface X did have a lot more problems, but Surface 9 on ARM from all reports works well.

Already does?

Windows on ARM is a thing, and it does x64 and x86 translation.

Where’s the installation iso?

Here’s an archive of all Windows updates and builds. This query is for arm64.

That’s not a safe place to get isos
