I’ll just add that Ken has one o’them weird chrome thingy machines with that no-good ARM stuff. Ignore the fact that he got a Raspbian vm from a Pi working well enough to find some rather arcane bitblt related bug(s). 
Oh and he did mention a problem with npsqueak, which I always thought was obsolete, and thus perhaps no longer maintained.

That aside it’s a little bit thrilling that there actually exists 'ARM laptops’ as a thing. I think the last ones were Acorn A4 machines from circa 1990.
