Mate, I ain’t paying for it! Max spec is standard issue for my group and I’ll get a bunch of accessories to go with it. I am kinda hype to try writing cross-compatible ARM/x86 code.
Yeah, it’s an impressive amount of work and more options is always a good thing, but there’s really no reason to go out of your way to buy a new MBP just to run Linux. Though I wonder what the used M1 market is looking like these days.

Lowkey not worth, you can get much better performance laptops for the same price

A QEMU VM running ARM would probably be a better experience for testing cross compiled code, than a reverse engineered distro on unsupported hardware.
