[Trisquel-users] Re : The future of Libre Computing: Crowd Funding Campaign Starts Now

Please inform yourself. Both when it comes to technology (e.g., having two  
CPUs or two cores, twice more RAM, etc. does *not* improve the performance of  
a mono-threaded program, such as all current desktop applications) and when  
it comes to the project. EOMA68 is a *standard* to have a computer in a  
PCMCIA card. That means:

different boards, with different components, possibly a multicore system on a  
chip, could be made in the future and anybody can replace a previous board  
conforming to the same standard (no need for a screwdriver);
there are limitations when it comes to the size of the components (PCMCIA  
cards have the size of a credit card) and the energy they can consume.
