Snapdragon X Support

[bespoke]

The new Snapdragon X based Windows machines are fantastic except Vectorworks 2024 crashes on launch.  Not native, and apparently not compatible with the Prism emulation layer, this is a problem that will only get larger as the Windows world shifts more towards ARM architecture chips.  What is the roadmap / timeline for supporting this?

There was another thread where VW said they are working on it.

I would love to get an update on this. 

I have the new snapdragon elite in the surface laptop, but with vectorworks not working at all, it's a bit useless for me.

If we're only a month away from it being compatible, then I'll keep it. Otherwise, it's going back.

Is there any update on this since July? Vectorworks is a fantastic piece of software but it can run at a snail's pace on high spec pcs compared with other CAD applications. Now looking to upgrade my laptop for minor, on site Vectorworks use but see that snapdragon is not compatible.
