It is sad that there is not a good past record of proper Linux support.

I would support the Kickstarter campaign, but being the Linux support only promises for now I will have to wait and see if it becomes a reality.

Good luck with your Kickstarter campaing.

PS: Please keep in mind that if you are trying to market and open source board, the #1st thing you have to do, and you have to do it very well, Is to give a EXCELLENT AND COMPLETE upstream Linux support to every single device of your boards, including specifically the GPU and CPU parts and its APIs. But you have not been doing it well in the past. I would advise you to focus your efforts 100% of that subject, and then you will have lots of loyal customers.  
The Firefly RK3399 is a good board, but without complete software support and dev tools it is of little use.
