 #### Hardware
 
-The build procedure for Zui's macOS releases creates binaries intended to
-run on Intel-based Mac hardware. Zui releases are not yet available that
-are built specifically for [M1-based hardware](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_M1).
-However, Apple's [Rosetta 2](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861) makes
-it possible to run Intel-targeted binaries on M1-based Macs.

-M1-based hardware has only recently become
-[available](https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/issues/2187) for
-our automation where we run tests and create builds for Zui. Therefore our
-planned work to deliver M1-specific builds ([zui/1266](https://github.com/brimdata/zui/issues/1266))
