![]() You typically start off with a virtualization solution by creating a VM, so let’s start there. So what’s the difference? Let’s do a quick comparison. VMware then later released a tech preview for their own VMware Fusion software (free while in preview). Initially, the only option for running virtual machines on M1 Macs was Parallels Desktop, so that’s where I started. (You might think the first VM was a Windows VM, but that’s not the case, the first was a Fedora 34 Linux installation. Not surprisingly, the first thing I wanted to do on it was to run virtual machines. I have a Mac Mini with the original ARM-based M1 chip. Oh, and you can generate your own Windows 11 ARM64 ISOs now too, just like Parallels does. Also see this post that clarifies Microsoft’s licensing for Windows for ARM64. Ymmv of course.: Feel free to read through this post and then check out the new follow-up post that compares the latest versions of Parallels and VMware Fusion. I’d rather have a root canal than visit an Apple store. Except of course, I LIKE my local hardware store. It might be fun to learn how to forge your own framing hammer from recycled beer cans, but it’s prolly better in the long run to hit your local hardware store. While hackintoshing IS a fun hobby, it’s not really reusable one. My main push with my ppl now is we shouldn’t be learning new skills we can’t use in the future. I know it’s an expensive outlay, but at some point you’re going to realize how much time you’ve sunk into getting hackintoshes running so you can do your main work. Since I’ve moved to AMD for my main workstation, I’ve found it easier to just buy a Mac laptop, keep it up to date and have done with it. Aside from all the cops telling you it’s against apple’s EULA, in my experience, hackintoshing has become progressively more difficult over the past 5 years. ![]()
