I'd like to check that out. Can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

The computers I use are ARM-based. One is based around an ARMv7 8-core

has a capacity of 64GB on the 32-bit machine and 128GB on the 64-bit
machine. Either is capable of running a full MATE desktop with Firefox,
Thunderbird, Firefox, Pidgin and LibreOffice all running at the same
time. In fact, I'm using the 64-bit machine to write this message, and
it's my primary computer for now, although I tend to alternate between
this one and the 32-bit 8-core machine. Both are very small; you can
hold them in one hand. I can give exact specs if you wish for both of
these. That said, there is a machine coming that may be even better in
the future, as there is talk of RISC-V, which is a fully free and open

anything we've seen up to now. I'm watching this very closely.
