NVIDIA Adds "Nyan Blaze" To Coreboot
It looks like another NVIDIA Tegra-based Chromebook is on the way judging by recent NVIDIA activity to Coreboot. Tom Warren of NVIDIA added the new nyan_blaze mainboard to Coreboot this week which is based on the "nyan_big" target but with some differences. Seeing new, modern hardware support in Coreboot is usually an easy way to tell of new Chromebook/Chromebox devices coming given Google's heavy involvement in Coreboot and using it for their Chrome devices as an alternative to a conventional, proprietary UEFI/BIOS.
Aside from this Coreboot commit and seeing some other Nyan Blaze references on the Internet to different Chromium components, there isn't much else known at the moment. The Nyan Blaze is also apparently an Internet cat.
