I get that very well thank you. I contribute to and use GPL software, I'm on 
FSF lists etc.

What you don't seem to see is that:

• Problem 1, you can't force _that_ freedom down the throat of _buyers_ 
(industry regulations could help a lot though).

• Problem 2, most buyers consider that freedom from hassles is more important 
than having the right to install another OS on their device. Really.
