It’s unfortunate that they’re using an old processor, but this is super cool and shows that the framework platform allows companies to tinker with unusual laptop motherboards without having to design the rest of the device.

Would be very interested in the benchmarks for this.

I wouldn't expect it to benchmark well, but it's good that they're making this available so developers can explore RISC-V on a good quality platform.
