That’s a limited time opportunity because x86 support is getting dropped with macOS 27.

Unless they don't provide ARM downloads or have some other problem, couldn't you just use the ARM version, because part of what QEMU is is an emulator, to emulate other architectures?

Well...looks like my employer will have to buy me a Macbook soon.

I bought the cheapest MacBook Air for my wife. It’s pretty nice. Lightweight, sturdy, and such good battery life that she doesn’t keep track of her charger. Personally I have a physical KVM that I use to switch between my Linux workstation and my laptop.
