I can't promise anything just yet, but I'll see what I can do. At the moment I'm still learning to configure anything. I've had apps crash from out of memory errors and the CPU get throttled due to overheating while trying to play a YouTube video. I've got some things sorted by increasing the size of the swap file. Frankly I want my laptop back so I can get a proper e-mail client again, since I can't quite remember the server details off-hand and the Webmail client causes problems with indenting in the fpc-devel mailing list, as you undoubtedly remember.
When you say Windows 10 on ARM64, do you mean an actual build for ARM processors or an x86_64 version running inside a virtual machine? Presumably I'll have to buy a copy of the OS for that, so it will have to wait for a little bit if that's the case. But hey, I'm all for cross-platform development. Gareth aka.
