Quoted from Pinchroma:Commercial Linux and the motherboards available when it arrived in 1993 are fundamentally unchanged 20 years later (Holy shit 1993 was 20 years ago.. i'm going to puke). Other than things getting smaller/faster the general premise will remain the same. Modularity is key.
I actually didn't realise it was just running as linux based, to be honest I haven't looked into it's real specs only was commenting on peoples arguments on the hardware failing. If it isn't keyed to any specific specifications or parts then yeah it's totally modular and if you can just throw in a new part so long as it can handle the output then your right I don't see how it'll have any issues in the future. I was assuming it had some proprietary or features built to need a certain motherboard model. I was wrong I guess. Serves me right posting in a thread without reading it all
