    The people taking the risk with DeckHD are the ones who try to install them. Difficult Installation, Custom Bios (Does it require DeckHD existing for support long term?), and its a resolution that the Deck isn’t targeting. I’m going to stop short of calling it a bad product, charitably its an enthusiast product.

    Ultimately DeckHD is not completely SoL, the base model is still going to have the LCD screen, so there will be plenty more new LCD models that some people may turn to DeckHD for.

      Yeah that is probably the big isssue. The chance that DeckHD will not be profitable and discontinued is now pretty high and if they stop releasing bioses after that you are kind of fucked.
