Edit Reason: Added note about MS-Windows on ARM
)
The Pinebook Pro seems to be the higher end, (highest end at the time designed?), ARM laptop that is not designed as a Chromebook. As such, it's gotten a bit more attention than previous works, (the Pinebook 11" & 14", as well as others). So we may start seeing more work in regards to making a more feature rich boot system.
At present though, we don't have keyboard or display drivers usable from embedded code, (aka ROM/Flash code). That's what I think is needed after NVMe boot.
Since it's easier to use the eMMC or SD card for development, it may be 6 months or a year before we see interactive and feature rich boot code.
Edit: I also meant ARM laptops built for MS-Windows may be higher spec'ed.
