I'm more looking at out-and-out unreliability - multiple people with DOAs, multiple people having trouble dealing with support, multiple people having subsequent failures, etc.
I also generally discount people who can't get Linux running on a board, though I read more carefully to see why. I've mucked with a fair amount of hardware, and generally gotten it all working, though I must admit that I don't do much on the bleeding edge. Even now I have a PCI soundcard plugged into one system because I haven't been getting proper volume out of hda_intel, though there have been substantial ALSA updates since I tried, and I haven't gotten back to it.
