buying a PC that isn't Copilot+ PC capable makes little sense these days, as you miss out on features like semantic search, Click To Do, and even Windows Recall.

I wonder if you can use Ollama and get something similar on Linux/Non-Copilot+ PCS, I dont see the point in NPUS though. (Click To Do only searches with edge and bing which i dont like,Semantic search i didnt do mucn research but sounds cool,And Recall was heavily criticised when it was first revealed.)

I've been locally running Qwen 3 and lately Qwen 3.5 on my SteamDeck for over a year now.

That's an APU, which is basically an NPU but can do more things and is less expensive, pretty sure that's what those acronyms mean.
