Way way back when Apple tried a next gen Apple II with an ARM processor
(rumor always had it that it outperformed the new Mac and was dropped) there
were some of us who were real enthusiasts.
How about an Apple //xTreme with 800x480, 128 MB and a 7" screen with 400MHz
ARM9?

It just(!) needs different software.
Ladies and Gentlemen: IT COULD BE DONE!

P.S. The Canon Cat was first designed with a 7" screen and all the focus
group nonsense said it was too small.
