but I think whenever you decide to make a new eoma68 laptop design, make
it a 13 inch instead of 11 inch.

aka, more space, means more durability heat-wise...

This would be even more effective whenever you start making your own
processors probably because then it wouldn't need to be as low

This is one idea I just wanted to throw at ya,

but another idea came to me, its just an idea of course, but a
libertybsd based router would be ultra secure I bet.

if it is possible I mean. ;)

Libertybsd = openbsd without blobs

ps, if you decide to make a processor from lowrisc, will it have 3d
acceleration/support for the latest opengl?

Those are my thoughts for now. Tell me what you think.

What? The current EOMA68 laptop is 15 inch, not 11 or 13. It's even bigger than
what you're seem to be asking for. I would personally prefer a 13 inch
for portability,
and possibly a lower price, but that is besides the point.

Hmm, I didn't read what zap said like that. I understood it to mean a
laptop to be made *alongside* the existing EOMA68 15" laptop. But I
certainly didn't interpret it the way you have.

I mean, I'd love a 11" or 13" EOMA68 - 15" is not really my style, to
be honest, and I agree ref: lower price - but I do not know what is
going on there - i.e, can it be brought down (price)?

No, I meant like for whenever he decides to make a smaller one.

I would be okay with a similar or even larger price. But that's besides
the point, if he sees this thread, I hope he understands that I am not
expecting him to do anything for a long while. Although, this could be
my foolish hope, but yeah it would be nice.

if a sponsor comes forward with around $USD 20,000 to 30,000 or if
that money can be raised by some other means then yes.

I bet something like that will happen in the future, probably not for a
while though.

I assume chris from thinkpenguin isn't interested at this time right?

At some point I think it would be awesome to have a polling to see how
many people are interested in new ideas such as this, etc,
