However my impression is that running Guix on ARM is not necessarily straightforward. I haven't tried it yet. Most important specs: CPU: NXP/Freescale i.MX8MQ with 4x ARM Cortex-A53 cores (1.5 GHz), 1x Cortex-M4F core. CPU and RAM are on exchangeable SO-DIMM sized module. RAM: 4GB LPDDR4 memory GPU: Vivante GC7000Lite GPU with mainline Linux drivers and OpenGL 2.1, ES 2.0 (My other main worry is: that's pretty light on RAM these days...! But hey, maybe incentive for me to cut the fat in the programs I use a bit more...) I am thinking of getting one and running Guix on it. It would be nice to know that I wouldn't be alone. :) Anyone else planning to get one and joing me on the journey on maybe the most hacker-oriented laptop ever? - Chris
