I don't give a fuck what Microsoft is doing with ARM, but I do wonder if releasing ARM laptops to the market will have an effect on Linux.

Anyone with some Linux development experience that can shed some light?

i hope things go as well as its looking.

ARM is the antithesis of Linux. I'm hoping RISC V goes somewhere.
