I’ve seen people talking about it and experienced it myself with a server, but why does Linux run so well on ARM (especially compared to Windows)?

      Yes, and DEC Alpha too. But all of that ceased with windows 2000. The only porting since then was from x86 32bit to 64bit. I’m willing to bet money I don’t have that Microsoft really only expected a port to 128bit x86 until ARM started gaining steam.
