Well, that changes everything. I'm sorry I misunderstood; I always assumed that you would start selling the hardware after the first batch was made (like e.g. the OpenPandora).
I still think your opposition to systemd is unfounded and wrong, and I still think that you should drop Debian and Fedora as options if you're going to do it, but as long as it only affects hardcore supporters / early adopters, everything will be fine.
Also, I understand now that the way I have been writing has unintentionally caused distress. That being the case, I apologize.
