I know that what I'm about write maybe on the edge of impossible, but a
great idea to strive for. I also know that support for ALL hardware is close
to impossible, but...
Would be nice that the install would recognize the hardware and install
appropriate drivers AND software to use it. Example: My Hauppauge WinTV
card. Yes, Hard Drake knows the card is there so why didn't the drivers get
installed? the BTTV drivers have been around for awhile. If the install
recognizes the card and installs the driver, it should also automatically
install appropriate software to use it like a video capture or net
conferencing software.
Even Windows doesn't do this, but it would be nice especially for hardware
that has been around for awhile.
