    there’s not a lot that non-Apple users can do with them

    Oh, there is.
    I am a web developer and I use this to run Safari and the iOS simulator without paying Apple’s “debugging tax”.

        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?

          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.
