I will hope and look for a 64bit home for PilOS in the hardware world! How about the Qualcomm DragonBoard? It's a 4 core 64 bit beast. Rob On Tue, Aug 4, 2015 at 6:07 PM, Alexander Burger wrote: > On Tue, Aug 04, 2015 at 09:40:18AM +, George Orais wrote: > > > Not just "prefer" ... There

Hi Robert, Nice find! And good point with the name :) But its an ARM Cortex M4 and from what i remember Alex would prefer to have it on a 64bit machine as much as possible? Anyway don't worry coz i already got all the ingredients for the pilMCU evaluation kit? Got it from Digikey last week and n
