Sad it’s not a better SoC, but this is super exciting nonetheless.
I hope this kicks off a more mainstream accessibility to RISC-V chips and PCs. We know nothing of the pricing yet, but given the regular framework laptop 13 has great specs overall, this could have a lot of potential. I'm hopeful!
I honestly don’t foresee this leading to significant change like that. The biggest thing this shows is that the framework platform is viable for making a modern, full featured laptop with less popular processors.
