- mmastrac 11y agoYep. But I stick to my guess that it'll take a decade for real change to happen. Obviously the goalposts are a bit fuzzy, but I feel like you have to give the hardware a chance to make it through three generations (assuming three-year lifespan on devices) before someone launches something that is within the ballpark of devices shipping at the same time.
- revanx_ 11y agomaybe some low performance RISCV SoCs will be available in a few years, but at least a decade for workstations socs.
