[Arm-netbook] arm-netbook Digest, Vol 76, Issue 17

[Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton]

ah, just some rules (which are common practice and have been well
established for over two decades) when subscribing in digest mode: cut
the context, otherwise you force everbody (over 600 people in this
instance) to trawl through extraneous stuff that they've already read,
looking for the few percentage points on a line-by-line basis for what
you've written.

an example of doing that is demonstrated below.  which i was forced to
do, myself, as you didn't do it.

 yes.  that's why the update said specifically "4GB is planned for the
RK3288" and no other processor.  if there existed any other processor
capable of doing 4GB of RAM i would specifically have mentioned it.

 even the latest intel tablet-targetted SoCs (the ones that have now
been terminated because nobody buys them because they're shit) have
two variants: one which maxes out at 2GB RAM and one which maxes out
at 8GB.

 nono - there's been so much going on it's easy to miss things.
