You picked an excellent topic on which to mention the Free Software environment.
Linux has the BEST hardware support of **any** OS.
There are more *old* devices supported under Linux
than are supported under XP/Vista.
There are more *new* devices supported under Linux
than are supported under Win9x.
The **reason** is the development model of The Linux Driver Project:

The _only_ thing that is required of the manufacturer in that process
is to co-operate on Step 3 of my list
and he gets a Linux device driver written for for his stuff for FREE.
The result is Linux has wound up with more supported devices than any other OS.
