RISC-V is already gaining steam in embedded systems. Apple, for one, is replacing some embedded ARM cores in their products with RISC-V cores. As others have pointed out, we've got SBCs aplenty, and the first laptop systems are coming out later this year. I get that as humans using computers we're eager for a RISC-V system that matches performance of other modern processors, but it's naïve to think that it isn't a viable platform until it competes with an Ryzen 7.
