risc-v computer

easy way to obtain a risc-v computer today is to order a tablet from pine64

here

it has almost same price as pinetab2 but pinetab2 is more powerful, has more matured drivers and software.

both are practically laptops, i doubt it will be convenient to use those as tablets, but i can imagine they can run xfce/mate or of course fvwm, dwm, windowmaker very fast.

alas both are also less powerful than pinebook pro, which is now unavailable and will never be produced again.

Framework is allegedly going to offer a RiscV board for their laptops soon.

Edited to add: it is actually released. Features a StarFive JH7110 and 8 GB LDDR4 RAM for $200.
