I definitely agree that some of their kernel decisions are... odd.  I'm 
wondering, though, why you think 2TB drives in specific are going to bite 
them harder than the 1TB models out now.  ext3 goes up to 16TB these days, 
and 2 marketing TB < 2TiB, so you'll still be able to boot off those 
drives.
