We can finally talk about some of the major new features coming to Serpent OS. I believe there are many of you out there that want to know what will make them install and use Serpent OS as their daily driver. Well, one of the coolest things about Serpent OS is that it will be supporting both 64-bit (x86_64) and ARM64 (AArch64) architectures from day one, according to lead developer Ikey Doherty. While 64-bit support focuses on Intel (Haswell and later) and AMD (Zen and later) computers, ARM64 support will focus on the Rockchip RK3399 SoC that powers PINE64’s Pinebook Pro, as well as on the Raspberry Pi 4 boards.
