I could theoretically afford one, but can't justify the cost for what I'd be using it for. However, it isn't out of range for the serious hobbyist who would rather spend money on this than, say, a motorboat or a European vacation or a really good set of golf clubs, although it isn't a casual purchase, either. I'm curious about what's going to come out of the RISC-V architecture, though, now that chips are starting to show up on the market. That's bleeding edge and non-ARM. E.
