Operating Systems > Linux and UNIX

You have to admit that, from a hardware support point of view, Linux still sucks.

look here:

LinuxQuestions.org thread - Y use Linux instead of windows ??

xyle_one:
thats a long thread. i didnt read the whole thing, just that last post. it was very convincing, and i havent looked at it that way. linux can be installed on anything, windows can't. now which one supports more hardware?    nice.

HibbeeBoy:
You certainly put him/her in their place.

At first I had problems getting my Dell hardware working with SuSe 8.0. But I stuck to it, researched the problems, asked around and low and behold, the problem is not Linux, it's because Dell ripped me off with hardware (winmodem and soundcard) that only works with Window$. It was very interesting to find out about modems in particular and why they only work with Window$. The consumer is being ripped off right and left or left and right, I forget which. So, when you see the Pentium and Designed for Window$ sticker, that's a warning right there folks. I will not be making that mistake again.

seems like something that could be used for open open.

Pantso:
That is certainly one long thread. Sorry, but I couldn't read all of it. I read Calum's post though which was excellent and right to the point.

I can't add anything more really.
