It looks like we've cleared the hump: Raptor Engineering tells me that Talos, the upcoming
POWER8 workstation and probably
the most powerful non-x86 workstation-class system you can buy, has enough interest to move to a
formal CrowdSupply launch. Sign up and stay tuned. I've been still saving my pennies and I'm definitely buying.
I was pumped when I received the email as I’ve already signed up and like you am pinching my pennies to pay for one when the day comes.
ReplyDeleteMuch as PPC has served me well (and continues to), I want to see an ARM workstation - that can be run off batteries. Put a 24+ ARMy-Ant-Cores on a problem and it gets solved.
