hi, I think you're missing the point here. Getting a fully functional box requires you to spend - either money or time+effort. This is independent of your OS choice. When you buy a box off the shelf, you incur M$ tax. If you want to avoid that, you can - spend time verifying that each bit of hardware is compatible with the distro of your choice or - spend money and get a branded box that is known to work with a specific distro or - spend effort and build a distro from scratch that will work with all the hardware that you have chosen. or - spend money to get someone to do any of the above. or - live with a box that works in parts. I don't think there's a shortcut there. -gabin -- It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. - William Jefferson Clinton
