| 1 | So you know the RPI is not open source as the RPI foundation doesn't |
| 2 | provide firmware sources. |
| 3 | Proprietary firmware is required to boot and fully use the device as the |
| 4 | RPI foundation only cares about open source when it is convenient to them. |
| 5 | |
| 6 | I would consider purchasing another device, of which legitimately open |
| 7 | source low power ARM devices are a dime a dozen (vs the high performance |
| 8 | realm where POWER's TALOS 2 or rare developer boards are the only choice) |
