Is ARM going to overtake x86 as the dominant PC CPU architecture by 2030?

There are already plenty of ARM Chromebooks in the wild and Microsoft is promoting ARM Copilot+ PCs.

Not until third party developers start releasing ARM versions of their software for Windows. Like most of the popular >muh games can't even run natively.

For laptops and portable devices. I can see it. For workstations, gaming desktops, and consoles (and even portable gaming PCs), probably not.

ARM doesn't even have a BIOS. Each bootloader has to be compiled individually with uboot. Total proprietary lockdown.

They're not. But even if you ignore them there's tons of legacy shit and industry specific software that don't get ARM releases.

Do you see any sign of that happening? Do you see any actual PCs with ARM motherboards being adopted en masse?
