They can make them at-cost and then charge whatever they want on their store. They just also have to allow me to choose different stores, or install another OS

They can make them at-cost and then charge whatever they want on their store. They just also have to allow me to choose different stores, or install another OS on my console if the OEM goes against my wishes. If you don't think I deserve that right as the lawful proprietor of said hardware, then we may be at an impasse. It seems like perfectly fair game to me.

Who pays for all the work to allow you to do whatever you want on your device?.

I don't think anyone expects the vendor to officially support anything other than the OS it ships with. We just want the option to use our own software on the hardware we purchased. > Who pays for all the work to allow you to do whatever you want on your device?. Surely it's more work to go the extra mile to restrict access?
