But when I’m thinking of buying a machine for ~$1000 or even much more , I expect some useful features of it. Being able to run fbsd-builds from MacOS is one of those features. Afaik currently fbsd runs in QEMU/Parallels(don’t know whether VMware has released something) and kettenis@ of OpenBSD made it "*running*"(for development) from u-boot. https://twitter.com/bluerise/status/1359644736483655683... …something from the tux: https://lwn.net/Articles/848307/ Well, compared to the Lx2k the currently max. of 16GB RAM and less cores of the M1 is something to think about … running native fbsd with 16 cores/64GB RAM seems to be interesting… but Dan K. was right : so many ugly gadgets lying around, and then so much dollars for yet another ugly board ? :-) .. Ha Ha..while also a lot of SFP-cables still lying around here I’m actually so happy that they’re no more in use :-) 10 GB SFP+ vs. 40GB thunderbolt 3 … well, many things to consider when we think about what to waste our money on next :-)….
