Every time I glance down at my taskbar these days I think I've got new email.
But no, it's just the new briefcase on the Microsoft Edge for Business icon fooling me. Again. Sigh.

That sort of implies you look forward to emails.

Of course, hypervigilence is a sign you're being abused...

I don't know about you but it (along with the small Work tab when you open it) annoyed me to the point that I switched to chrome!! Good riddance.

The only thing that annoys me about Edge is the new icon, and I can live with that. I like Edge too much, and hate Google too much, to switch to Chrome.

If something's urgent, people can phone me. Otherwise I decide when I check for new email. If I had a mail app that checked every minute or something I'd be even less productive than I already am! ... plus I currently have 10 active email accounts, so I get to choose whether I'm checking work-specific stuff, general stuff, or one of several very niche (in a good way) interests.

Sure, but I don't get a lot of email so when one comes in it's usually something I need to take action on. Unless I'm in a zone I'll look at it. And we tend to use Teams chat rather than phones these days since we no longer actually have physical phones.

Maybe you could create a local, non admin account and launch Edge under that account?
That would detach your work id?
I thought it was an email as well until I broke out the magnifier and saw the handle.
Now a days, they should have used a back pack icon!

My PC cannot run Win11, an i7-5820K. That's fine with me; it gives me a good excuse for not upgrading from Win10
I'd really like to get more familiar with ARM - not as an IoT processor, or as a smartphone, but as a full-sized desktop machine. I'd be running Win11 and dotNet on that.
Are there CPians who has experience with any such machines? Which machines are available in the marketplace?
I am aware of the MS Volterra, but would prefer something with configuration flexibility more like my current full tower: A decent video card; ARM's "Mali" LEGs (Low Energy Graphics) are not quite at the level of the GeForce cards, are they? I'd like to plug in more standard memory. Room for more internal disks. Something like a standard ATX motherboard, only with a different CPU/Chipset.
Googling brings up some 2-4 year old solutions, for earlier ARM generations, or boards in the Arduino/RaspberryPi class (mostly for older, smaller ARMs).
Is Volterra the only option at the present time? MS is offering a full Win11 for ARM - are all its customers using Volterra?
Are any of you running Volterra and can report any experiences with it?

Thereβs a really great YouTuber (Explaining Computers) who does great tests on h/w of all kinds and has done a lot of SBC (single board computers).
He has at least one video here[^], which explains ARM-based SBC.
Itβs an unboxing with details and performance testing. That guy does a really great job of explaining options. It may ate least provide you with a start.

I suspect it's still so early when it comes to Windows-on-ARM that you probably won't find an expandable general-purpose box with standard parts like you would for a bog-standard x86-based PC.
At this stage, I'd go for an already-built box that is supported end to end by its manufacturer - like, as you mentioned, the Volterra (which I admittedly know very little about). But expecting something like a standard PC, but running ARM?...I don't think the market is there yet.
