@PhenomX6 @Lumeinshin @ryo I have been wanting to move away from x86 for years, so I wondered about that, but even the used POWER8 hardware that I saw was way too expensive. I even considered one of the old Apple desktops, but anything Apple is guaranteed to be overpriced. Like, it has to be affordable to an extent that it's actually worth buying, or I might as well just stick with a Librebooted ThinkPad and hope that a viable RISC-V system comes out and doesn't cost too much.

I will probably never make enough money for buying a POWER9 to be really worth it. I can buy so many things for that amount of money, it's ridiculous, Even the cheapest one is 5000 dollars, more expensive than a car. I don't know used car prices, but I can probably get a nice early 90s Toyota Corolla (I think cars only had computers added to them around 1994) for less than that. Not a small amount of money. It may actually be enough money to buy everything that I want in the world other than a car and a house or land or weapons. Or a least a big percentage of that.
