    We’re a ways away from reaching equivalent performance characteristics of the currently available options they have with RISC V, but I would also love to see that as well.

      I couldn’t care less about performance, I use OpenBSD as my desktop; I just want an open architecture that doesn’t have some backdoor like Intel ME/AMD PSP and better battery life.

        That’s fair enough, though one of the characteristics I had in mind was also battery life (that said, it would be at a given level of performance so either way).

        Also definitely not thrilled about things like ME, Pluton and so on.
