The initial cost of the cards might be high, but there has to be a demonstrated market for to convince the major vendors that we really are buying hardware from them, not setting ourselves up for servitude.
I look forward to spending a little bit extra if necessary to have the freest possible system, when I build one.

Sure, I would be willing to pay a bit extra for that too. However, if they want to sell a lot of cards, then it has to be resonably priced.
