It’s not long ago Pine64 announced their Pinetab-V with RISC-V infrastructure and absolutely no software support, now people are already running KDE Plasma and watching YouTube videos with it. It doesn’t sound like a lot, but I’m amazed how fast it’s developing.
I really don’t think we’re that far away from being able to run RISK-V as a daily driver for basic computing.
And I gotta say, my partner recently got a M1 MacBook Air, and while I have many reservations about the device I’m jealous about the fanlessnes and battery life. So I’d absolutely be interested in being an early adopter.
The processor is a JH7100 - from this statement it seems to be open, but I honestly don’t know how to verify it.
The purpose is primarily to get a RISC-V device out there so that people can start hacking away - if you’re more interested in using it than tinkering with it, it’s probably better to wait a bit longer. :)
