DC-ROMA RISC-V Laptop II

DC-ROMA RISC-V Laptop II review, including demos running the pre-installed Ubuntu Linux distro.

Please note that the laptop shown in this video was kindly loaned for review by Deep Computing and returned a few days later. Deep Computing did not pay me in any way to make this video, and had no influence over the content except for providing answers to some questions, as indicated in the video on two occasions.

Can we all take a minute to appreciate how hard Chris works, not just to produce such professional and informative videos, but to react and reply to so many comments! 👏

[VeryUsMumblings]

It's too bad you have to give this laptop back. It would be nice to see if the performance improves with a few software updates and some optimization. I am enjoying these RISC V videos!👍

[SecretWolfie]

FINALLY! An ARM/RISC based laptop that is not bound to Microsoft's CoPilot Plus Regime.

Dropping a view/comment/like to boost the video’s consideration within the algorithm.

This is beautiful. I studied RISC-V in University. Seeing it in the physical form instead of simulating it and seeing wave forms is very nice.

I subscribed years ago after just one video about a raspberry pi. I love the informative nature of the channel. No fluff, just facts. I've shared the channel with teachers where I work and some use it in class and others said it was too corny and dry. Whatever, their loss. I love these videos.

This is great that there is a complete system. Really liking the current standard of 8 cores, 8 -16gb ram and NVME. and so i agree about the so say "couple of generations away" because of graphics processing. This is a great start for sbc risc-v computing to launch mainstream.

Time to get RISC-y once again! This time on a laptop. Good morning, everyone! :)

[perrymcclusky]

Definitely an exciting piece of hardware. I appreciate your exploration of this RISC-V laptop! RISC-V development has progressed quicker than I expected. Looking forward to your next video!

[gpalmerify]

Love that this hardware dictates the OS rather than global corp dictating that YOU buy new hardware compatible with their OS.

[PCUSE]

An exciting alternative to all the proprietary stuff we are stuck with these days(even on Linux). With Intel and AMD pushing 'updates' to their microarchitecture, this looks promising.

[aeebeecee]

This is what future laptop form: RISCV + Linux

Fantastic works as always Chris.
As a fan of all things open-source, I'd love to see AMD, and Intel produce RISC-V CPUs. Or a new manufacturer making something that can not only compete, but put the willies up the legacy manufacturers.
Open-source is the way forward. I just hope that more people use and see the benefits of open-source software and hardware.

I love how this laptop looks, it's so clean and simple. Just as many bells and whistles as you could expect from a development platform and still looks very slick.

[muddyexport]

Thanks again Professor! Always look forward to "A closer look"...

[LeeZhiWei]

Hey! Haven't been here in a while. Glad to see you on Jeff Geerling's RISC-V video, and commenting on a RISC-V video. Just RISC-V everywhere! Haha... I would definitely want to help contribute to the maturity of this platform, so I will get one of these hardware soon! Great job on this video!

[gregholloway]

Thanks for showing this laptop, Chris. Cool to see new RISC-V products. 👍

Although it's a laptop, the price is still quite high - you can preorder e.g. a Milk-V Jupiter board for ~60$ (4GB RAM)/ ~115$ (16GB RAM) with the same processor..

[rfwillett]

It's amazing just how fast RISC-V is moving.

Having a Linux laptop between 4 and 600 dollars. Is for me already good news. There is the German company "tuxedo", but they are way more expensive. I have some feeling that this will become the new "thinkpad".
