Actually, H, I find it is usually vendors that screw the pooch with
Linux.
The big case in point giving me headaches right now is Intel's iwlwifi
driver. It may be more "open" than iwp3645 (sp?), but they sure broke
something in the transition.

I gather you don't work at a university, laboratory, server center, or
software house, then.
By the way, the number of half-witted Linux devotees is to the number of
Linux devotees as the number of half-witted Windows devotees is to the
number of Windows devotees.
