We can certainly do a lot better than this, an attitude of "unless its perfect its futile to even try" is defeatist bullshit, and not what Stallman endorses at all.
- morganvachon 12y ago> "unless its perfect its futile to even try" I didn't say that. I said there's little we can do, not nothing we can do. And there are people, Stallman and others, who are doing something. I'm simply acknowledging that it's a mountain, not a foothill.

- sinetek 12y agothere's plenty we can do. Bunnie's Novena laptop is a great example of moving in the right direction. It all depends on speed I guess; you could have a completely open hardware laptop using an FPGA, but speed would be an issue for sure
- sp332 12y agoThe Novena has a quad-core Cortex A9 as well as the FPGA. A lot of people who buy it probably won't use the FPGA at all. In fact, the Spartan-6 FPGA might have more secrets than the CPU.
