As a developer, I wanted to make sure that my software runs well on the new
Apple Silicon so I ordered a MacBook Air with the M1 chip as soon as they
were announced.Overall, I'm extremely happy with the battery life and
performance of Apple's CPUs, but as an early adopter of both the new Big
Sur operating system and the new hardware, I have run in to a few issues
which I want to share.Migration

==============================
As a professional developer I understand that you wish to keep up with a
proprietory system .
But as a simple Linux user I am happy with open source software , not
facing any hardware or software problems , in the way I use the
operating system.
Both Apple and Micro$oft ,both being very much commercial, try very hard
to protect themselves against hardware/software intruders ,hence the
regular snags.
