In reply to ryan's concerns, I feel the Intel card will fail for the very reasons the EOMA68 cards will succeed. The Intel card is not open, and Intel will of course try and milk money out of the platform. OEMs DON'T want users saving the environment and spending years with one shell. Quite the opposite, they want you coming back year after year for the new model. So then what do we have? We have a closed card, with no OEM love. Intel won't make a successor card. On the other hand, we have the EOMA68, which already has successor cards potentiated (rockchip,samsung,all that good stuff luke is testing in china) and as an open standard anyone can take up, there's actually a business in just tracking down processors to throw into cards (And in fact if you can Luke, point this out to Rockchip when you meet them) As you said, people will try and put Windows on the Intel card, with all the drama swapping resolutions etc will bring with windows drivers being the shitfest they are, but because the EOMA is so open, one can trivially do all this swapping, AND TROUBLESHOOT ANY CRASHES LITERALLY WITH A INTERNET SEARCH OR THE COMMUNITY, unlike waiting on Microsoft.
