If Sega doesn't mind, why should we? Besides, it keeps the Dreamcast legacy living on a bit.

technically they are illegal. they change the copyrighted and patented hardware layout without any permission or licence and they sell it under a new name - also without a licence, which i think is some kinda trademark infringement...
most important is: sega isn't in the hardware business any more, so who cares. noone does. thats why you can buy handheld nes', treamcasts and other modified pirate versions of old consoles nowadays
