remind me next week. my MBP just arrived, yesterday, and after 20 hours in
migration assistant, is finally in use.
I got a dev edition of win 11 installed in parallels, but i have not tried
anything else with it, yet.
i also have not figured out how to get the apps to transfer because you
can't just open your intel vm in the arm vm, which means getting programs
to move won't be trivial.
