There are a bunch of comparable x86 processors such as Panther Lake and Qualcomm.
They also supported 10+ year old computers for a long time. But MS shouldn't be the bar we hold these companies too. Some dude was able to add support for the latest MacOS to 20 year old computers in his spare time, so we know it's not that hard, and nothing at all to one of the wealthiest companies on the planet. They don't do it because they make more money selling new computers.
