This is looking like some serious hardware. Orange Pi is starting to eat into the Intel NUC territory.
What I really hope is that the NPU they advertise gets plenty of software support so it's more than just a marketing ploy.
This is the big issue for me right now.
I'm looking for an SBC to be the guts of a cyberdeck fun distraction, and I was originally thinking an rk3588 would be cool, but there's no support for vulkan yet, some of the I/O can be a problem, etc.
Its making me think I'll just end up getting an n100/n150, but I didnt really want to get an Intel chipset for it.
Is what it is I guess. I hope this one has support off the jump.
