I guess you forgot one of the basic principles of buying a computer for
using with GNU/Linux. The first thing one has to do before buying is to
scout around for hardware that is fully supported. One way would be to
look for computers which have Linux pre-loaded, so that one knows that
all the hardware will be supported. The other way would be to take a
live distro with you either on a CD or a pen drive and test it before
deciding to buy. If one just decides to buy a machine and then tries to
make it run on any of the available distros, one might face such
problems.
