The Kobol Team did a much better job than any of the other ARM Vendors with their devices. The Wiki always detailed EVERY PART of the Hardware and their devices ran mainline kernel the day i bought them. I have come to hate almost every other ARM Device because at the end of the day the software support was only good enough when the hardware was already dying of old age. It's a little easier with no GPU to support though. That being said, Kobos never delivered quality hardware. My Helios4 died, likely the PSU, early Helios64 needed a botch job for their LAN Ports to work correctly and they never delivered on the ECC RAM needed for a NAS. Performance on the Helios4 was also absolutely crappy, never being able to deliver gigabit speeds over the LAN Port. I wish them all the best though, my personal hardware is going to be x86 for the foreseeable future unless ARM makes MAJOR strides in terms of linux compatibility
