http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-12-06#1954435 <-- I'm not convinced it will, tbh. atm buying an existing corebootable board is a much cheaper alternative (for gpg at least) than supporting a new one, on account of http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-12-05#1954371 ; might work on the long term when the supplies for e.g. x60 will be exhausted, but even then, trying to make sense of closed t

urds is gruesome (read: both very risky and time-consuming) enough that doing it once will shift the business towards tmsr hardware

anyway, I'ma sit on this thread for a while, will focus on getting uefi disentangled for now

spyked: My suspicion is that the cost of acquiring a TMSRbootable board is almost aways going to beat supporting new hardware, unless the new hardware is *very* interesting.

spyked will admit he doesn't even know how reverse engineering costs can be estimated, most likely due to lack of experience. will ask around, maybe someone in the field can give an idea

BingoBoingo just assuming hardware is cheaper than directed hands on a task
