      We’re talking about Qualcomm here, the company that made a deal with Microsoft to make Windows on ARM exclusive to Qualcomm SoC.

        I actually thought Qualcomm was quite cool, but that’s an ass deal. On the other hand, it’s Microsoft and I kind of hate them at this point

          I see you’re not working in any industry having to deal with Qualcomm.

              It starts with them only doing initial talks about buying their hardware for a project with you for a 7-figure payment, and doesn’t improve from there.

      No x86 is pretty much the only Platfrom I’m aware of where you can build a generic Kernel that will work with pretty much any hardware configuration out of the box.
