Please have a look at the dev snapshots and check what's actually there
and working.
Aleksey, when did you last try it? I'm not disputing that x86-on-arm
even in the latest dev snapshot is painfully slow for fat OSes like
Windows 11 or Ubuntu 24.04 (it is much faster than some months ago and
overall much more working than the hopeless state of 7.0.x which was
very buggy and even worse performance wise). In any case, try ARM
virtualization because that's meant to be usable (right now for Linux
VMs only). Not the "many years of work" as in the rumor you're spreading.
Life is obviously a lot easier for userland-only tools such as fex-emu
mentioned by Sérgio.

Darwin-arm64 (aka Apple Silicon MacOS) -- is dog-slow and not
production ready last time I checked.
Virtual Box by design is a x86 virtualization platform. And porting
it fully to ARM architecture is going to be many years of work, and
it would only support ARM-on-ARM o.s, so Debian Linux for ARM
(guest)on Windows 11 for ARM (host), on Qualcomm Snapdragon

Hi,
I am writing on behalf of my team from Endava company. Our task is
to work with opensource community, and setup multiple applications
for use on win11 arm64 machines.
One of the tasks is to understand the problems and if possible work
on build for Windows 11 arm64.
We've seen that there is already some effort invested in Darwin
arm64, and we wanted to check if there are similar plans for
supporting Windows arm64, and if we can somehow help with that work?
