the main argument against windows is that it doesn't run LinuxCNC

I know someone else with this config, and he has written a walkthrough. I will ask him to post it.

oh well, rio also supports e.g. ROS and MQTT without LinuxCNC, so the ARM core can also be very helpful.

And it may even be possible to run LinuxCNC directly there without a GUI.

i can't say much about the conditions, the board i have looks quite good. And even if you always have to buy 2, it's still cheaper than a new single Zynq chip

Ah yes I know that feeling. One has to do what one has to do.

I was a bit put off by the description of the conditions of the boards, I think on one of the github pages it was recommended to buy a couple of boards as they can be, as we say in Australianish, "a bit how ya goin".

Bit off topic but might be worth a few giggles.

I think that it will be the computer suppliers that will dictate the Desktop uptake. The average Joe will want Windows, the Mac users are dedicated to Apple, or whatever Apple throws at them.
People will just want a turnkey solution, or if they build their own PC what they are comfortable with.
I would posit a guess that the uptake in people connecting to the internet via phones or tablets is on the increase..........it would appear the easiest route to rot your brain with social media.

Apparently the latest trend on TikTok is their AI becoming sentient and having a soul. So I really don't have a lot of hope. I'm pretty sure it would the same group that use mediums, astrology, talk to spirits and jump on the "Latest Thing".

I'm so happy to be a grumpy old man in this day & age.

rio's goal is that it runs on all FPGAs.
since the znyq already has an arm core and is connected to ethernet, you should be able to use it.

at the moment i wouldn't advise anyone to use the board for RIO, the TangNano9k is much better suited.
But somehow it is a challenge for me to get everything running on the board and once everything is working it will certainly have some extended possibilities.
