Hi,

I just got myself a new MacBook with an M1 (Apple Silicon) CPU.
VMware also recently released Fusion 13 which is able to run Windows 11 ARM in a virtual machine on Apple Silicon.
For completeness: Parallels does this too, but I don't have any experience with their recent versions.

So after getting Windows 11 ARM to run inside a VM (which requires a bit of tinkering and researching the web) I was able to install PEP3 (have not tried PEP2) without any larger issues.
PEP3 launched just fine and after copying my TSU9800 config into the VM I was able to successfully sync it to my Pronto.

So, in case anyone is thinking about upgrading their system and is wondering if PEP3 will still be working - it does.

At this time, though, Win 11 ARM is only available as an Insider Preview build.
From what I am able to tell after such short time, it runs fairly well, but it's not production-ready yet and you should be ready for quite a bit of troubleshooting.

Please try PEP2 and let us know. I am planning on buying a newer mac and my current setup of VirtualBox will not work on M2 Apple ARM processor.

If PEP3 works, PEP2 will as well.
