It’s kinda pointless unless you’re a security/libre freak and it has a cool novelty to it if you got a few thousand to burn. I’d like to play with a PowerPC/Trisquel Workstation because I like the retrocomputing community’s mentality of taking an old platform to it’s maximum potential like Vimpire Accelerator cards for old Amigas or looking for the newest hardware that has Windows 98 Drivers just because they can. I’d like to see that with Libre platforms without breaking the spirit of Libre or even non-Libre for PowerPC in general. Maybe install AmigaOS or NT4.0 or hackintoshed PowerPC Leopard just because you can.
First question how the hell did they get funding? This thing has died twice now.
Secondly, YAY. This is so cool. Theres a trend back towards ppc being a thing and it would be a cool vm box or something if they lept the 4 core 8 thread chip they had nailed down.
I’ll have to keep an eye on it >.>
Even comes with a radeon WX card o.o
