+## We want to:
 
-LibreSOC strives to deliver a fully capable and competitive mass volume Libre integrated System on Chip for use in chromebooks, smartphone, tablets and industrial boards. We want to maximize the degree of trust a customer can place in their processor. We do this by providing the customer the freedom to study, modify, and redistribute the the bootloader and Operating System full source code *and* the full SoC source from HDL to VLSI.
+ - give mass volume appliance manufacturers an alternative to expensive un-auditable chips.

-Right now, we're targeting a (quad core, 800mhz, dual issue, GPU, VPU, [and later an ML inference core] ) SOC.

 Its quite hard to guarantee that a performant processors (think pipelined, out-of-order) are functionally perfectly correct. In fact, it often turns out that they [aren’t](https://meltdownattack.com).

 Given the fact that performant bug-free processors no longer exist, how can you trust your processor? The next best thing is to have access to a processor’s design files. Not only have access to them, you must have the freedom to study and improve them.
 
-Such a processor is referred to as a Libre processor. However, processors themselves are only a part of the picture. Nowadays, most contemporary computing tasks involve artificial intelligence, media consumption, wireless connectivity, etc... Thus, we must deliver an entire LibreSOC.

 expect. An ISA level simulator is no longer satisfactory.
