This is going to be great news for new MediaTek chromebooks coming out in June with 2016 MacBook level cpu performance. rk3399 was just barely usable with a lightweight window manager. I may even pick up one of the 8192s in the meantime if a distro like arch linux arm starts supporting it.
Great work from Alyssa and everyone else at Collabora.
- my123 5y agomt8192 is already buyable for me, that said mt8195 is a significant bump over that: https://www.mediatek.com/products/products/tablets/mediatek-kompanio-1380 https://www.mediatek.com/products/products/tablets/mediatek-... Hopefully that reaches retail quite soon.

- panny 5y agoI'm not excited about M1 at all, tbh. I'd rather have a corebooting chromebook, even with the performance differences.
