    Love this. I don’t know much about risc-v but I’d love to see it disrupt the market a bit.

      RISC-V still has a ways to go before it usable for much.

        Its usable for much now… Just not as a daily driver laptop. It is good for embedded applications now, but not quire there for phone or laptop use. Maybe one day.

          Google is certainly planning on it being viable.

          They’ve been merging RISC-V support in Android and have documented the minimum extensions over the base ISA that must be implemented for Android certification
