That article is laughable, its not up to hardware vendors to support
Operating Systems, it is up to the Operating System to support the hardware.
Attitudes of this type are will just continue to make the Linux
community be looked at as a bunch of whingers. Rather than complain
people need to work out how to solve the issue rather then duck-shoving
it back to the hardware manufacturer.
[/opinion]
As an aside I have never had any problems with any Asus hardware under
any OS I've tried it with, be it Windows, Linux or even OS/2 (OK there
are a few issues with OS/2 but that is just because it is a dead OS).
