People complaining about the old Pinebook are missing the point completely. Pine was always super open about its limitations, even on the "purchase" page. From the beginning, it was always intended as a product for tinkerers, ARM enthusiasts, and OSS advocates, not for consumers. And now they've taken what they learned and applied it to create functional, Chromebook level hardware. Even with the Pro version, why would you ever buy this thing as a typical consumer? I mean, how would you even find it in the first place? The Pinebook is not aimed at the general public, even the Pro version. The Pro will be great as a terminal and as a machine for casual development. It's not a gaming PC, a media center, or a server.
