Does anyone know whether SDL Trados can be run on the latest MacBook Air, the one with an M1 chip?
How smooth it is to use SDL Trados on the previous MacBooks?

Hi Li-ting Hsia,
The guides linked to by Steven are out of date as regards the newer M1 Macs.
The only option usable right now (May 2021) of the three mentioned there is Parallels. Bootcamp is not supported and VMWare has yet to release an M1 version of Fusion.
So running Trados on an M1 specifically means this:
One thing in Studio's favour is that it is not a 64-bit app, which is good, since 64-bit app support has only recently been added (in the last six months) by Microsoft to the Insider Preview version:
I guess someone like you or me is just going to have to buy an M1 Mac and find out...
Cheers,
Ed
Dear colleagues,
Please see the link below in parallels forum. Trados seems to run on M1 mac with arm Windows 10, but it cannot rerun after Windows is shut down. The arm Windows 10 might be updated to enable the Trados to normally run though.
yikes! so it sounds like we have to wait until Microsoft approve their ARM version of Windows 10 for general release before any of us take the plunge. But from what I understand, (definitely not an expert talking here) the trend is towards ARM architecture and Studio will run on it in principle. Is that the gist of it?
