U-Vratislav Holub Ngesikhathi sengqungquthela yonjiniyela i-WWDC 2020, u-Apple wembule ngokokuqala ngqa ushintsho olubalulekile - Ama-Mac azosuka kuma-Intel processors aye kuma-chipsets e-Silicon e-Apple. Kulokhu, umdondoshiya wathembisa izinzuzo kuphela, ikakhulukazi endaweni yokusebenza nokusebenza kahle kwamandla. Uma kubhekwa ukuthi lolu wushintsho olukhulu, kuphinde kwaba nokukhathazeka okusabalele ngokuthi ngabe i-Apple ibheke endaweni efanele yini. Wayelungiselela ukuguqulwa okuphelele kwezakhiwo, okuletha izinselele ezinkulu. Abasebenzisi bebekhathazeke kakhulu mayelana (emuva) ukuhambisana.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
Ukushintsha i-architecture kudinga ukuklanywa kabusha okuphelele kwesofthiwe kanye nokwenza kahle kwayo. Izinhlelo zokusebenza ezihlelelwe ama-Mac ane-Intel CPUs azikwazi ukuqhutshwa kuma-Mac nge-Apple Silicon. Ngenhlanhla, umdondoshiya we-Cupertino usikhanyisele ngalokhu futhi futhi wasusa isisombululo se-Rosetta, esisetshenziselwa ukuhumusha uhlelo lokusebenza kusuka endaweni eyodwa kuya kwenye.
I-Apple Silicon iphushele uMacy phambili
Akuzange kuthathe isikhathi eside futhi ekupheleni kuka-2020 sabona ukwethulwa kwe-trio yama-Macs okuqala nge-chip ye-M1. Kwakungale chipset lapho u-Apple akwazi khona ukukhipha wonke umuntu umoya. Amakhompiyutha akwa-Apple akuthola ngempela lokho umdondoshiya ayebathembise kona - kusukela ekusebenzeni okwandisiwe, ngokusebenzisa ukusetshenziswa okuphansi, ukuya ekusebenzisaneni okuhle. I-Apple Silicon yasichaza ngokucacile inkathi entsha yama-Mac futhi yakwazi ukuwaphushela ezingeni lapho ngisho nabasebenzisi ngokwabo ababengazange balicabange. I-Rosetta 2 compiler/emulator eshiwo ngenhla nayo idlala indima ebalulekile kulokhu, okuqinisekise ukuthi singasebenzisa konke ebesinakho kuma-Mac amasha ngisho nangaphambi kokudlulela ekwakhiweni okusha.
Lena yindlela i-Apple eyethule ngayo i-chip ye-M1
I-Apple isixazulule cishe yonke into kusukela ku-A kuye ku-Z. Kusukela ekusebenzeni nasekusetshenzisweni kwamandla kuya ekwenzeni okubaluleke kakhulu. Lokhu kwaletha olunye ushintsho olukhulu. Ukuthengiswa kwe-Mac kwaqala ukukhula futhi abasebenzisi be-Apple bashintshela ngentshiseko kumakhompyutha we-Apple anama-Apple Silicon chips, okubuye kukhuthaze abathuthukisi ngokwabo ukuthi bathuthukise izinhlelo zabo zokusebenza endaweni entsha. Lokhu ukusebenzisana okuhle okuhlala kuyisa yonke ingxenye yamakhompyutha we-Apple phambili.
Ukungabikho kweWindows ku-Apple Silicon
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, akukhona nje ngezinzuzo. Ukushintshela ku-Apple Silicon kuphinde kwaletha nokushiyeka okuthile okusalokhu kuqhubeka nanamuhla. Njengoba sishilo ekuqaleni, nangaphambi kokufika kwama-Mac okuqala, abantu bakwa-Apple babelindele ukuthi inkinga enkulu izoba ngasohlangothini lokuhambisana nokwenza kahle. Ngakho-ke kwakunokwesaba ukuthi ngeke sikwazi ukusebenzisa noma yiziphi izinhlelo zokusebenza ngendlela efanele kumakhompyutha amasha. Kodwa lokhu (ngenhlanhla) kuxazululwa yi-Rosetta 2. Ngeshwa, okusaqhubekayo ukungabikho komsebenzi we-Boot Camp, ngosizo okwakungenzeka ngalo ukufaka iWindows yendabuko eceleni kwe-macOS futhi ushintshe kalula phakathi kwezinhlelo ezimbili.
Njengoba sishilo ngenhla, ngokushintshela kusixazululo sayo, i-Apple yashintsha yonke i-architecture. Ngaphambi kwalokho, ibithembele kuma-Intel processors akhelwe phezu kwezakhiwo ze-x86, okuyizona ezisabalele kakhulu emhlabeni wamakhompyutha. Cishe yonke ikhompuyutha noma ikhompuyutha ephathekayo isebenza kuyo. Ngenxa yalokhu, akusakwazeki ukufaka iWindows (I-Boot Camp) ku-Mac, noma ukuyenza ibe ngokoqobo. I-Windows ARM virtualization ukuphela kwesixazululo. Lokhu ukusatshalaliswa okukhethekile okuqondile kwamakhompyutha analawa ma-chipset, ikakhulukazi kumadivayisi ochungechunge lwe-Microsoft Surface. Ngosizo lwesofthiwe efanele, lolu hlelo lungenziwa futhi ku-Mac ene-Apple Silicon, kodwa nalapho ngeke uthole izinketho ezinikezwa ngokwesiko Windows 10 noma Windows 11.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
Izikolo ze-Apple, iWindows ARM iseceleni
I-Apple akuyona yodwa esebenzisa ama-chips asekelwe ekwakhiweni kwe-ARM ngezidingo zekhompyutha. Njengoba sishilo esigabeni esingenhla, amadivayisi we-Microsoft Surface, asebenzisa ama-chips avela ku-Qualcomm, asesimweni esifanayo. Kodwa kunomehluko oyisisekelo. Ngenkathi i-Apple ikwazile ukwethula inguquko ku-Apple Silicon njengoguquko oluphelele lwezobuchwepheshe, iWindows ayisenayo inhlanhla futhi kunalokho izifihla ngasese. Ngakho-ke kuphakama umbuzo othakazelisayo. Kungani iWindows ARM ingenayo inhlanhla futhi idumile njenge-Apple Silicon?
Inencazelo elula uma kuqhathaniswa. Njengoba kuphawulwe ngabasebenzisi beWindows ngokwabo, inguqulo yayo ye-ARM iletha neze izinzuzo. Okuhlukile kuphela impilo yebhethri ende evela kuwo wonke umnotho kanye nokusetshenziswa kwamandla okuphansi. Ngeshwa, kuphelela lapho. Kulokhu, iMicrosoft ikhokha okwengeziwe ngokuvuleka kwesikhulumi sayo. Nakuba i-Windows isezingeni elihluke ngokuphelele ngokwemishini yesofthiwe, izinhlelo zokusebenza eziningi zithuthukiswa ngosizo lwamathuluzi amadala, isibonelo, angavumeli ukuhlanganiswa okulula kwe-ARM. Ukuhambisana kubaluleke kakhulu kulokhu. I-Apple, ngakolunye uhlangothi, isondela kuyo ngenye indlela. Akazange nje aqhamuke nesisombululo se-Rosetta 2, esinakekela ukuhumusha okusheshayo nokuthembekile kwezinhlelo zokusebenza kusuka endaweni eyodwa kuya kwesinye, kodwa ngesikhathi esifanayo ulethe inani lamathuluzi okwenza kube lula kubathuthukisi ngokwabo.
Ngalesi sizathu, abanye abasebenzisi be-Apple bayazibuza ukuthi bayayidinga ngempela i-Boot Camp noma ukusekelwa kweWindows ARM ngokujwayelekile. Ngenxa yokuthandwa okukhulayo kwamakhompyutha we-Apple, yonke imishini yesoftware nayo iyathuthuka. Lokho iWindows okungamazinga amaningi ngaphambi kwakho, nokho, ukudlala. Ngeshwa, i-Windows ARM cishe ngeke ibe yisixazululo esifanelekile. Ungakwamukela ukubuyiswa kwe-Boot Camp kuma-Macs, noma uzophila ngaphandle kwayo?
