why should they wish to do such a thing when they're getting paid by M$
not to do such a thing? I say screw the manufacturers that don't want to
play ball and let pay those in the Linux community that "can" and want to
write the software we need to run our toys and gadgits. At least that way
we'll be sure that the drivers are written correctly and will work.
