New project
Hello
A group here in Brazil is starting a new project, the idea is
to build a small computer that looks like a notebook as Pine64 notebook
https://s2.glbimg.com/NR0vR3P0x5ZasZ3BjXcIhXn3X0Q=/0x0:1006x616/984x0/smart/filters:strip_icc()/i.s3.glbimg.com/v1/AUTH_08fbf48bc0524877943fe86e43087e7a/internal_photos/bs/2020/K/h/zi2gU3TgWFS91YR4KaIQ/slide-pinebook-14inch.jpg
The idea is to give to 2nd grades students a platform that is cheap
powerfull and not tied to anything big techs have, so
NO google, NO microsoft, No apple... No high speed internet
Linux is out too because of copyright code...
We are looking something like the
Ci20 https://www.mips.com/platform/mips-creator-ci20
of course we will need to hire NetBSD porters to and buy some chips to
make it
happen... We are thinking in RiscV too but a real computer with riscV
is too far away, ARM is not
an option too because of copyright... and licences
the project is expect to produce about 1mln (1,000,000) computers/year
We are in the initial phase of the project, so we need some support on
how to make it happen
we accept ANY suggestions
Sergio
