    I had some fun today trying to install Windows 11 on an m2 mac in a virtual machine. Couldn’t use virtualbox as their website was on holiday (bad gateway) so tried UTM. Set it to emulate x86 and have it a Windows 11 iso. About half an hour later it gets to asking about language ETC, and eventually crashed with an oobekeyboard error. Incredibly slow.

    Tried again with an arm windows 11 download and native UDM and it worked OK. Not as fast as I’d expect, but I only gave it 4gb of ram.
