If the direction is closed hardware, soon we don't have any hardware to run Linux. And I, for one, prefer an open operating system always over a proprietary one. I'm a hacker and I want hacker's OS. I'd be interested about Apple's hardware, but their software support for other than their own is abysmal. The work done here is worth of praise, even if it means reverse-engineering the hardware.
