Also the newer ARMs don't just have "new ASM instructions". There are major
MMU changes, for example, as well as SMP support.

There is something interesting for me in all these (both webOS and Android).
Kernel is just a kernel, I'm more interested in the higher level
framework, and that's what could be theoretically used atop of ReactOS.
However all of these are just speculations, first of all we need our
kernel to be

WebOS is Linux-based OS and i don't think it can be more usefull in
ReactOS development than any other Linux distro.
It's very good that we got new open source OS but this should not turn
into promoting another OS in ReactOS dev mailing list.

Please think about using parts of webOS as top shell for ReactOS (for tablets and phones). http://developer.palm.com/blog/2011/12/open-source/ HP webOS goes opensource. http://opensource.palm.com/packages.html here you can find parts of webOS source code (still not complete) webOS provides amazin
Yeah, the higher-level code should work without issues on the Pi
considering it has an MMU and FPU. Converting the ASM to ARM-style ASM
will be the key and I'm not qualified to make any assumptions there.
Are there any fundamental issues with porting the existing ASM code in
ROS to an ARMv6Z a

If the Wikipedia page on ARM 11 is to be believed

Tegra uses this architecture, but aside from the Raspberry Pi I am not
aware of any ARM11-based platform out there which might be useful for
ROS, unless someone wants to run it
I thought Windows supported v5 - v7?
Anyway, I realise that the Raspberry Pi uses the dated v6 architecture, but
the killer thing here is the $25 price tag.
There's also the BeagleBoard which is slightly cheaper than the PandaBoard,
and also uses the A8/v7 chip. But at $149 I really don't see

According to Wikipedia the Raspberry Pi uses the ARM1176JZF-S core which
is an ARMv6Z architecture. It should be similar to the ARMv6K as it most
notably lacks multi-core support. It's still an old architecture, of
course, and I agree that the Cortex A-series is a much better choice as
a develo

It looks like the model B boards are now in manufacture.

There are only 10k being made being made in this batch and demand is really
high, so I doubt they'll last longer than a few minutes.
With only 256MB RAM available, I doubt Windows 8 will ever run o
