Do anyone know of any PB developers using macs with a VM host like Parallels? I've been trying it with no issues so far. I'm tired of carrying around two machines.

We recently purchased an Apple Mac Studio which is based on an M1 processor.  We got the latest version of Parallels designed for the Processor.

Unfortunately it was a complete disaster - couldnt load 64 bit SQL Anywhere drivers - file transfers failed - various weird misbehaviors.  sadly I had to return the Mac Studio which i would have loved to replace my PC workstation.

After several support attempts we realized that many problems in the Windows 64 ARM implementation were already well known to Parallels.

So as Armeen mentioned - stick to intel processors and you should be OK.
