Yep, if it wasn't clear from what I said at the end, I believe that fully eliminating the monopoly on the home computer will require a new open hardware stack that is drastically simplified and does not require millions of lines of code to realistically support.
Well when you do it, you will have a customer here.
What you said about complexity of hardware and software being liked by big corporations, reminded me of something someone told me about government regulations. He said the more complex they are, the more big corporations like them, because they can afford the lawyers and accountants to deal with them, while small businesses can't.
100% agreed. The best friend of large corporation is large government, and vice versa. A large corporation will gladly use a large state to exercise power over competitors and gain unearned advantage in the market, and a large state will gladly use large corporations as the means by which it exerts force. The idea that the state protects the equality of rights for all, irrespective of income, status, class, and many other factors, is the kind of utopian fantastical propaganda that only government schools could invent.
To compete with Apple and Microsoft you'd have to do what Apple does. Build your own hardware.
