+# The Mission
- give mass volume appliance manufacturers an alternative to expensive un-auditable chips.
- maximize the degree of trust a customer can place in their processor.
-## The Means:
+# The Means:
- provide the customer the **freedom to study, modify, and redistribute** the full SoC source from HDL and boot loader to down to the VLSI.
- engage in **full transparency** at every level of the development, right from the inception through to delivery of silicon. no exceptions.
-## The Market:

- chromebooks
- smartphones
- single-board computers (like the Raspberry Pi)
- whatever you want
-## The Machine:
+# The Machine:
- our first target (Oct 2020): a single-core dual-issue 180nm 64-bit "demo" QFP chip that will also be a saleable product in the "Embedded" space (Arduino, STM32F, Ingenic jz4720).
- a full quad core SoC: 800mhz, dual issue, 4-wide FP32, Hybrid CPU / GPU / VPU [and later an ML inference core], comparable to the Allwinner 64 in capability.
