Is all apps are compatible on m1? Like Ms office, adobe products?

is window will run through Virtual machine?

I want to buy it for Development and Design Purpose.

There is no issue.

Rosetta is a translation process that allows users to run apps that contain x86_64 instructions on Apple silicon.

Yes Windows will run on Virtual Machine.

"We switched Parallels Desktop to universal binary and optimized its virtualization code; and the version that we are eager to try on these new MacBook Air, Mac mini and MacBook Pro 13" new M1 SoC"

Microsoft adding support of x64 applications in Windows on ARM.

update your software—

Big Sur—Microsoft recently announced that it was officially ending

support for Office 2016 for Mac on October 13, 2020. Apple Silicon compatibility in Office 2016 is questionable.

The pre-existing Virtual Machines are NOT supported at this writing. Parallels has a beta Virtual machine environment available, but standard x86Windows will NOT execute in their Beta virtual machine at this writing.

Any 'ordinary' software that runs under Big Sur runs on Big Sur on Apple-Silicon, by using Rosetta-2 emulation, EXCEPT:

software that requires Virtualization instructions, does not currently work, including:

Windows

Parallels

VMWare

Virtual Box

Docker

Android development emulation

What about Adobe Products?

Native Apple Silicon compatibility—

" Photoshop (Beta) runs natively on Apple

devices with M1 processors and can be installed via the Beta apps tab

in the Creative Cloud desktop app. ... You must be on a device with Apple Silicon and have Creative Cloud desktop version 5.3. 1.470 or later for this beta to be visible"

Photoshop, Apple Silicon, and Big Sur | macOS 11 - Adobe ...

Thank you for this answer. I found out by calling the seller of my new MacBookPro 13" M1 16GB 512SSD. I use a lot of Adobe products and also different kind of DAW's (mostly Cubase) and CAD like software.. I know i am gonna be cursing a lot the next few months.

But i am very exited to try the new processor. It's a Unknown Pleasure...
