Eltechs’s faster exagear desktop software version now supports armv6, in addition to armv7, letting users run x86 apps on all models of the raspberry pi.. Deviceguru writes: russia-based eltechs announced its exagear desktop virtual machine last august, enabling linux/armv7 sbcs and mini-pcs to run x86 software.that meant that users of the quad-core, cortex-a7-based raspberry pi 2 model b, could use it as well, although the software was not yet optimized for it.. A raspberry pi is said to be roughly equivalent to a 300 mhz pentium ii, and then it needs to emulate an x86. to me that sounds like it will be too slow to be fun/interesting. – thorbj
