Claim ID
firmware-divergence
Assertion
Commodore justifies firmware restrictions by saying its hardware roadmap will diverge from Gideon Zweijtzer's standalone Ultimate64, for which Zweijtzer's firmware is built.
Quote
Our hardware roadmap for the Commodore 64 Ultimate includes board revisions and component changes that Gideon's Ultimate64 firmware has no reason to address, since it's built for his product, not ours. As those two paths diverge, firmware designed for one is increasingly likely to cause costly problems on the other.
