The unsavory individual who brought us the Raspberry Pi and who 
convinced 100,000 people who did not look very hard to buy them works 
for the company that produces its CPU integrated circuit. He is 
essentially the only person who can write drivers for it, since he 
selected a chip whose data sheets are under NDA. This is why there are 
so many problems, like the USB driver being unable to switch from one 
speed to another, thus making a number of USB devices incompatible while 
used with the Raspberry Pi.

People ask why I think the Open Hardware community is dominated by 
morons. It's because they dive joyously into such things.

Get a chip from a company that respects you. It's on the beaglebone black.
