It is terribly funny, isn't it? Especially considering the host OS and most of what they give you is pretty much almost entirely open-source and the closed-source offerings are software packages that they offer and support above and beyond the LAMP or base OS they offer. ...much like buying and running closed-source applications you buy for the tablet... yanno, not tied to the OS so much. Funny that, yes.
