Post From: 2021 Mac M1 Max with Sierra Chart via Parallels Desktop 17 with Windows 11 on ARM

Any assist would be very appreciated! I recently upgraded to this machine:

Apple M1 Max chip with 10-core CPU, 32-core GPU, and 16-core Neural Engine
64GB unified memory
2TB SSD storage
16-inch Liquid Retina XDR display
Three Thunderbolt 4 ports, HDMI port, SDXC card slot, MagSafe 3 port

I was expecting to bootcamp the hard drive with windows in order to run Sierra Chart natively, rather than through any kind of virtual desktop. My previous mac had bootcamp and I ran SC with no prob, but this new M1 chip does not support it. I was like WTF.

I am now at a crossroads about what to do. There were some posts last year about methods to run SC on a virtual desktop (Codeweavers Crossover) but I am wondering if SC supports Windows 11 on ARM through parallels and is the user experience optimal?

Anyone have any experience with this?

PS. Love SC and do not want to switch platforms! SC crew, any chance a mac version of SC is ever coming?
