If time is your valuable commodity then buying a first gen "revolutionary" product was never going to be a good move. In your case, buying "known good" was the direction you should have gone and let others cut themselves and bleed out on the edge. Sorry for your bad experience, chalk it up to lessons learned. It's ever the case with tech: the vision is far, far ahead of reality.
- smeej 5y agoIf it hadn't been for the glowing reviews of how seamlessly it supported Linux, and the suggestions if not outright claims on the website that it was designed with Linux support in mind, I wouldn't have. It doesn't sound ridiculous to me that someone might decide to target the Linux market really well even though others haven't. I had hoped that was what had happened. Maybe I wanted to believe it more than I should have believed it. But that's the motivation behind my posting here, to save anyone from making the same mistake. I have a $1700 paperweight. Oh well. But that doesn't mean I want anyone else to make the same mistake.
