Some time ago, William Croft from www.OpenBCI.com wrote, that OpenBCI has only an income from selling OpenBCI components. But some time ago, OpenBCI hired three people for the OpenBCI Galea. The Galea starts from some 1000 USD dollars, up to 20 000 USD. Are the high costs for Galea caused by these three people and the salary of Founder and CEO of OpenBCI Conor Russomanno, Shirley Zang, and OpenBCI supporter William Croft? On the other hand, altough www.OpenBCI.com is hiring people, they seem not to be capable of offering an issue-free WIFI shield since more than two years. Isn t that strange? Or is OpenBCI parted in sub departement? We don t know of any support of William Croft for the OpenBCI Galea. Is William Croft a company of his own at www.OpenBCI.com ? Is OpenBCI an intransparent company in which we cannot trust? OpenBCI has only an income from selling components. We ask ourselves, how many OpenBCI Galea devices will be sold for 20 000 USD? Is this a business model that works on the long-term? Can this company survive with this business model on the long-term?
