[TriEmbed] Raspberry Pi perspectives

[Michael Fulbright]

When I was at Red Hat in the early days (1996-2003) I was definitely at 
the "pragmatic" end of the spectrum trust me compared to many people so 
I am with you on what you are saying.

I also honor the right of a producer to their IP I just would like to 
think consumers would clue in against walled gardens and lock in and 
through market pressures encourage more open solutions but I don't see 
that happening unfortunately.  Given the transition over the last 20 
years of "opt-in" being required as a general principle to "opt-out" 
being the norm I don't have much hope for this.

I do sometimes miss the simpler days of software when most people had 
never used a computer.  :)

Anyways I'm sure I'm way off the charter of this group - just saying the 
Beagle-V looks cool really!

Until then Producers have a right to Intellectual property. Plus, I still own some Intel stock, although I sold a bunch yesterday. `,~)
