And it wastes a ton of die space on a mostly useless NPU. Fantastic.

exciting advances in the CPU and Linux realm.
Good to see the competition between desktop and mobile chips. I mainly prefer more efficient once. Great for all use cases and especially if you don't need as much for power use.

Btw AI focus means matrix calculations or?

Amazing. Incredible! Been waiting for something like this.

Now let's hope they keep it open/libre and painless (I'm talking about you, nvidia!) I'm very satisfied with AMD now, but this is very promising for a powerhouse yet lightweight laptop.

#Debian, yeah!
