gee thanks for accusing me of a Rant...  all I did was point out the Kernel 
has never been updated and that public hacks exist...   but to answer your 
question

My list would include....

it's a kernel with much more then a RaQ could support compiled in.

The display drivers and not the standard Cobalt ones and require special 
programs to work

the displayed information is not as clean as a RaQ2

The kernel uses to much memory

it also uses some very outdated software including dovecot which this thread 
was about.

The bios update required has actually trashed several Raq's and in some 
cases even for experienced long term Cobalt users...

They lie on there site about the updates I have made

When they made the kernel the public hack already existed...  so actually 
they shipped a know bad kernel

Support is limited as I have heard from several people looking for help with 
very strange problems
(some you can google)

They spammed more then one forums including my own to sell there product.

They tell people the solution to there problem is to buy there software and 
use that..  even for easy fixes...

The guy has a "real job" and doesn't have time to support his work

now I'm sure I could add more but I don't have time for this bs.  I hope 
this helps to answer your question though.
