I came across this today. I honestly can't even remember how or where--lol!
The thing I like about this system is that it is 100% DRM-free. No hidden surprises or gotchas on the system. No anti-codec software(or lack of codec support) to force you to using certain types of media files(looking at Microsoft and Apple here). It is purely Linux.
I hope they can gain a stable base audience. I remember when the PS3 came out. One of the main selling points that Sony advertised was that you could install any type of operating system(like Linux) on there to use extra programs. Then, they handed out a mandatory update that removed that feature. Needless to say, there were quite a few people upset.
