   Hi Alexey!   
      
   31 May 2020 22:22, from Alexey Vissarionov -> Richard Menedetter:   
      
    AV> And even more - 32 Gb would be ok for now.   
    AV> Also, I'd like to have 16 to 32 Cortex A72 cores instead of shitty   
    AV> BCM2711.   
      
    AV> Well, I know that would be something other than Rpi...   
      
   Exactly what I wanted to reply.   
   There are different niches.   
   And the Rpi was always the cheap and slow throw away hardware.   
   You cab give it to an 8 year old, and if he spills his drink on it, you buy   
   him a new one - no problem.   
      
   A 4 core 4 GB RPi is already very capable in that niche.   
      
   A 32 Core 32 GB RAM, 16 GB L3 Cache computer is not a RPi in my mind.   
      
   I would immediately take it if it is reasonably priced, but it will not be the   
   35 USD computer that the RPi wants to be.
