And when Framework says they “aren’t yet competitive,” that may be something of an understatement: Phoronix’s Michael Larabel points out that even a Raspberry Pi 4 mini-computer is likely faster than the quad-core 1.5GHz RISC-V StarFive JH7110 SoC you’re getting here.
Not meant for consumers but could be a good option for people who want to develop on it
The main board is meant to be swappable, too, so you can move also go an AMD/Intel main board and have two computers in one, sort of
this is part of the beauty of modular computers.
the laptop corpos can’t adopt this sort of thing soon enough.
I like many of the things that Framework bring to the table. One of the only things I thought they lacked was a FOSS BIOS option like Coreboot so if this uses u-Boot or something similar it may be on my wishlist.
Isn’t MNT Reform first laptop on RV?
EDIT: they have FPGA laptop. So kinda yes.
