Oh, interesting, then they have no excuses now 
This is what the edge agent is based on:

Interesting, I see its open source.
But on a serious note, given Epicorās push towards browser first I think they need to seriously consider releasing edge agents for Windows, Linux (deb/rpm) and Mac Both x86/64 and ARM64, Microsoft is throwing a lot of eggs in this ARM based Copilot+ basket. Think it is defo worth Epicor considering it. If they are not already.
I mean if its java and .NET, well they should just be able to compile for Linux at the same time they do the Windows builds. Mac might need some extra effort but at least the other two should be straight forward enough.
Iām not sure, but I think only part of it is.
I think they have an edge agent for mac.

Has anyone tried running any Crystal Reports on these types of machines? Iām wondering if the runtime libraries will still work on those.

They should, as this is using the x86 emulation feature.
Performance of this is not going to be great.
Iād like to see this applied to one of the new Rockchip boards. (for shā¦ and giggles)

Both QzTray and .NET Edge Agent could run on Linux. But there is no installer for it.
And .NET code for EA is built for a specific platform only. So I doubt it can be just reused from the package.

Iām going to be picking one of these laptops up this week to start more testing now that I established the software will run.

.NET should be a straightforward gap to spackle over in Wine or similar. Preferentially something like Bottles to keep it jailed, Docker-ing Wine is a major pain.
Who knows if it would be possible to get direct printing to work, but we donāt care. In several months I havenāt run into any issues using the web client from linux without edge agent. The only edge agent errors Iāve seen have been buggy error messages from some other actual cause.

So did it work?
Yes it works on windows for arm.
However, I did not end up getting a laptop as after making that post when I went to purchase one the following week, they had gone out of stock and became unobtanium locally. Then I kinda forgot about itā¦
there is lots in stock now 
probably because all the people that where interested have bought them and most standard users donāt want them as they donāt want to risk the program they need not working on it. Might wait till they go on fire sale and grab one then to play with.
