Whats your point here...(?)

There may well be a beta available if you contact the developer:

New Parallels Desktop

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

Parallels Desktop for Apple Silicon Mac

yep.. we should drop mail to almost all vendors and opensource etc.. to make their product compatible for M1.. apple responsibilities is over after sell.

Apple can not and will not modify third party apps. Apple does not have

access to third party app developers' proprietary code. It is 100% the

responsibility of third party app developers to make their apps

compatible with new operating systems. Is it GM and Ford's

responsibility to make sure their cars work with third party aftermarket

products?

microsoft or apple their own apps are not sufficient to do daily work, they have to ensure if they are making major changes all 3rd party s/w vendors to be informed in advanced (so they have enough time)

and am sure GM or Ford ll never launch cars which run "avgas" unless there's enough stations.

FWIW, your "avgas" reference is not the same as GM or Ford only selling cars that run some third party gizmo. If a muffler company decided to only make mufflers that could only attach to a 12" exhaust pipe I'm certain that GM and Ford would not make cars that had 12" exhaust pipes. Same if a third party app developer decided to only make 32 bit apps, Apple would not produce hardware and operating system that could accommodate 32 bit apps. Is the dog wagging the tail or is the tail wagging the dog?

Apple gave at least 12 years warning that they were transitioning to 64 bit. They gave several years warning that the M1 chip was coming. If third party developers chose to disregard the warnings, and the changing technology, that is not Apple's fault or responsibility.

Yes it is annoying. You should let the makers of these products know that you are disappointed in their inability to upgrade their products.

FWIW, I would shy away from Parallels M1 beta unless I had two M1 Macs.
