Folks,
Now, if/when this devices "is shipping", I can finally build out a 12VDC
pickup camper gentoo centric "deep woods" mobile dev_shop.
I kid you not:
"Upton says the 64-bit image is for power users who want to map all 8GB
into the address space of a single process. It's currently in beta and
misses several key features, but once ready it will provide a 64-bit
alternative to 64-bit versions of Ubuntu and Gentoo."
GENTOO? Wonder who is behind that bit of work?

No kidding:
"Even the Raspberry Pi beginner's guide had a reference to an 8GB
variant, while the Pi 4's Broadcom BCM2711 chip supports up to 16GB of
LPDDR4 SDRAM."
16 G on a pi?
I'm all in. Can Anyone verify this offer?

Yeah! "deep woods" I like it. I wanna make a mobile 12V system too.
12 VDC is pretty standard now for RV, boats and many environments. It's
about finding, testing and deploying advanced gentoo systems on 12VDC
where is can turn into a remote, secure palace. Surely I'll post, when
my vision is ready. I think, for me, usb4 is also quintessentially
important. Jump into gentoo-embedded to find out what's going on any
time. embedded and 12VDC, are synonymous, imho.
Microwaves, TVs, audio systems and host of other "fun-toys" can also all
run on 12VDC.
Bye the way, deep woods is quite similar to ski-lodge, cross-ocean
cruising, mountain climbing, arctic retreat,
island living, ranch-cabin, horse-back-camping etc etc. 12 vdc can store
energy on batteries, such as optimas, yellow-top & redtop & bluetop and
all sorts of exotic metal based batteries. A small energy footprint, is
good for the earth, and 12vdc brings folks "closer together" so it is
the ultimate e4nergy source on cozy nights with the ones you love....
Diverting money from the large electric grid operators?
....priceless....
