Introducing a new RISC-V Mainboard from DeepComputing | Frame.work
We’re excited to share a preview of a Framework Laptop 13 Mainboard with a new CPU architecture.
A bit slow but still awesome for folks who want to develop on RISC-V.
Targeting developers is, I dunno, misses the audience. It would have been a great netbook, or a Raspberry Pi replacement.
If I develop something for Risc-V arch, it is probably some embedded thing with 100 MHz CPU and 2 Mb RAM, and I am cross-compiling it anyway on my more powerful PC.
I don't think Risc-V is ready for that yet. Needs a little bit more time to go to the GA
Seems to me mainly of interest to devs who want to prep for a future generation of risc-v chips.
When they start making affordable arm or risc motherboards that can take pcie cards and ram sticks, then I'll be interested. The "pi" motherboard form factor has its place but we need better stuff.
How are these video thumbnails done? Ive only seen them on lemmy
Not sure how much this will be but pine64 already has a risc-v development laptop available for a long time
Edit: not a laptop but a tablet
Alternative options are never a bad thing.
Pine64's laptops are ARM, but not not RISC-V. they do sell a RISC-V soc (the Star64), but the Rockpro64 chip is ARM.
I want an ARM laptop, but the PinebookPro was a little underpowered for me to use. Some day.
Oops, i was confused. They have a risc-v tablet but shown with a keyboard accessory so it looks like a laptop
