I have an unhealthy addiction to relatively obscure computers that I probably wouldn't actually use very much. Here is the latest one that the little voice in my head is telling me I need to buy so I can get my fix: the HiFive Pro P550 running the RISC-V ISA:
- MicroATX form factor
- 4-core 2.2 GHz
- 16GB DDR5
- Gigabit ethernet
- PCIe expansion slot
- NVMe
And it should be able to run Guix OS. The thing is, I don't really hack on operating systems or compilers very often, so I would only be using it as an ordinary end-user with the limited software available for it, which I can do right now, and with more available software, using any old x86_64 computer.
So logically, I don't actually need an awesome high-powered RISC-V development board for anything. But that doesn't stop me from seriously considering buying one.
