It would provide a (somewhat) cheap starting point at under 200?. And there has been some work on a risc v compiler... Not to put aside or turn my nose up to RISC V---since with the absorption of ARM, alternatives are good to have and I have, too, bought documentation about RISC V---but if the motivation is the price, there are Arm based Soc that, with a case, an external battery and an alimentation are available for less than 70 euros VAT included ($84) (for example with Olimex). For a terminal, what costs much today is the display ("much" relative to the price of the Soc). For trying to build a cluster in order to experiment various ways of distributing processing, it has become quite affordable. -- Thierry Laronde http://www.kergis.com/ http://kertex.kergis.com/ http://www.sbfa.fr/ Key fingerprint = 0FF7 E906 FBAF FE95 FD89 250D 52B1 AE95 6006 F40C
