You might not want the ARM core ..

This is something interesting in that it gets away from the management engine and you can have computer cores and
counters - pulse generators all in the FPGA. So you would have a Linux computer with special hardware for machine
control mostly on one chip (other than memory and video ).
This will happen - the question is what's going on in the details.. and when.
,.,.
There is another trick that can be done with an FPGA - it can be reconfigured on the fly - gates configured to do one
job quickly - then changed for another task thread - the line between software and hardware becomes quite blurred - will
need new programming tools..
The wish is for the whole thing to be opensource..
