Thanks heaps,
that clarifies something critical:

If the devs for this device began
with the primary initiative of making it work under linux,
making it work under windows would be like falling out of bed.

The photo seems to indicate that they are concerned with
making it work under win,
then 'fix' things as necessary
to get a linux version working.

Which,
as some of us have learned (the hard way) over the years,
never works for much more than a few fingers of hardware.

Sadly,
GPD will never be of much use as a linux host.
