The whole concept of computing is to get OS that works on hardware (any hardware!!!)
in order to get most out of it, this is why I am a linux user, and if there is something
preventing linux to use my web-cam or other, what a heck I write my own driver for
it using existing modules; and if my machine isn't "compatibale" with XP, you know
what f... it, I am not buying "XP compatitable" system to run some cartoonish and
crapy OS on it, if I want to use my network card to full extent and XP is telling
me that a driver I am trying to install is not XP signed f... it again, there is
no profit to Bill from me, even though I've never bought a single copy of MS OS's
anyway. I am not here to flame windows and to say how linux is really wonderful,
I am just here to say if the monopolistic company is trying to monopolize the whole
computer industry it would sunk under its debris in a little while.
