That's me. Also it was based on Linux, so its not a waste of hardware, because I know a Linux operating system works well with it. I wasn't even expecting it to play new AAA games developed for the newest console generations.
This is so important, especially as we live in an age where tech being churned out that ends up as paperweight is the norm. Being solidified in the Linux kernel we know this thing will live on for decades until in 2080 they will pull the plug on the x86 architecture and you'll be one of the 3 people still around to remember it
I don't think I make it to 2080, but otherwise agreed. :D
