With all these RISC dev boards and laptops Im getting ao much hope & renesanse for the future I haven't felt in a very long time.

While I understand that 'runs Debian' means 'nothing but core works, this is for devs, not end users' I really think this could be the global push towards open source hardware & software (with laptops such as these phones are soon to follow).
