That isn't really true for the Raspberry Pi, though, as they sell 
themselves very much on their commitment to full hackability. I 
think people are very right to hold them to a higher standard than 
the normal "throw it over the wall" sort of design we get from most 
vendors.

As a sidenote, the Beaglebone Black works fine with fully free 
software.
