my newborn interest is already over.

Well, we do try to support a few of them in the Mobility SIG

I'm also interested to find a tablet where I can install
Fedora,but that tablet should be based on ARM.

We will try to support these, when they start sending them out.

Hi Allen,

Awesome!

The pine64 is an ARM tablet.

Correct. That said, it is completely new on the market - and not yet
fully supported by mainline kernel and thereby Fedora. It is expected
for users (in the beginning) to have some super-user skills.
The Pinetab2 is also a low-power SoC - very far from a powerful SoC as
you generally see them on x86 laptops.

   I have one Windows
app that required an intel processor that I
need to run in Wine (it does on my Fedora37).
I presume that is out with ARM.

Well, I can't really answer that, as I have never used wine.
To my big surprise though, wine is available in Fedoras repos
for aarch64. I suspect though, that it will require Windows aarch64
binaries to be able to run them. An alternative could be an emulator
like Box64, that can run x86_64 files on aarch64 - but that will be
_extremely_ slow on this device.

But, if I can run Android apps, that same app also
has an ARM Android version, which works better
than the windows version!

Fedora has Waydroid in repos, that can run Android apps in a container.
Again generally reported so be slow on such low-power devices.

Your take?  Will I be able to run ARM android apps?

Possibly.

Also, maybe a dumb question, but does ARM Fedora
also come with SE Linux?

Yes.
And, can I run MATE and/or Xfce on the ARM version?

You can run whatever you like.

   Allan.

Thank you!
