somewhat related information: just found out that there is (seems to be)
a Loongson 3A based mini-PC:

  http://www.lemote.com/products/computer/fulong/348.html

Price point seems to be RMB 3999, if I understand this shop's page
correctly:

Not sure how stable/usable that hardware would be, tough.  I currently
consider getting one to replace my 2f mini-PC.  It may only come with a
single-core version of the 3A (description says LoongSon2G/3A, not sure
what that means).

cheers,

David
