This person has no problem with Ouya, the article isn&#x27;t even about Ouya. He has a problem with kickstarter. He doesn&#x27;t get it at all.<p>&quot;Don&#x27;t buy your electronics on Kickstarter. That&#x27;s the lesson...&quot;<p>Nobody &quot;buys their electronics on Kickstarter.&quot; They support projects they think are cool, or wouldn&#x27;t exist any other way.<p>&quot;don&#x27;t spend (your money) on mystery hardware that nobody has ever laid hands on, built by new teams. Let other people be the suckers, and reap the rewards later.&quot;<p>Are you kidding me? This couldn&#x27;t be further from spirit of kickstarter style projects.<p>This is just an non-news article trying to get hits by saying angry things about a popular project. Doesn&#x27;t belong on the front page.
