   Good ${greeting_time}, Benny!

   No. And for now, ARM64 (aarch64, ARMv8) is the most advanced architecture.

   2 MK: I'd rather have PCI-E x4 (or even x1) slot.

   So what prevents you from doing that?

    BP> sure just PXE boot then :)   
      
   SD cards have one important advantage: they can work in the SPI mode, thus   
   allowing bare CPUs (all modern CPUs a really SoCs) interact with them.   
      
   And, anyway, having microSD slot is much better than soldered eMMC chip.   
      
    MK>> I plan to compile the Husky stuff once it arrives.   
    BP> it will be a dream machine in the pocket :)   
      
   I almost have one. Alas, for now it's just RPi4-4Gb.
