Telegram is the latest of my daily Windows apps to enjoy native ARM support on Snapdragon X and even my ancient Surface

Telegram is a leading messaging application available on Windows, Android, and Apple devices. The latest version 5.7.2 includes integrated native ARM64 support. Users can download Telegram for Windows on ARM from GitHub, where it is offered as a full installation or a portable application. Previously, Telegram operated under Microsoft's Prism emulation layer on ARM devices, but now it runs natively on ARM64, providing a faster and more efficient experience. Users can download the app via an executable installer or as a portable option from the 'telegramdesktop' GitHub page.

This Surface Pro costs $84,000, and it still doesn’t include a keyboard or stylus?!

A listing for the Surface Pro X on the French Microsoft Store displayed a price of €77,777.77, which is approximately ,000, marking the highest price ever associated with a Surface device. This price is likely the result of a glitch, as it only appears in the Windows 11 Microsoft Store and not on the web version. The Surface Pro X is currently out of stock, preventing any purchases at this inflated price. Typically, prices for Surface Pro devices decrease around this time of year, and recent discounts on the Surface Pro 11 have concluded. The listing appears to be a humorous anomaly rather than a serious offer.
