   This is changing fast. I have the Orange pi RV2 , (riscv)   
   and it has a 8 core over 1 Ghz CPU, and run several brands of GNU Linux,   
   e.g.   
      
   Welcome to Orange Pi 1.0.0 Noble with Linux 6.6.63-ky   
      
   I do development work on ciforth RISCV 64, and it generates the   
   html postscript pdf and info files allright.   
      
   It doesnot compare in speed to my 25 Kg HP workstation, but fits in the   
   palm of you hand and does a decent job of all mundane tasks, such as   
   showing videos.   
   It has support for AI engines build in, however I have not succeeded   
   in trying that out.
