That may be true on the cheap^H^H^H^H^Hcommodity x86 platform, but on
SPARC, I'm not all that impressed to date; performance, actual functioning of
some allegedly supported devices, removal that requires a lot of manual
action to reinstate the original device support (if they just diff'd 
/etc/path_to_inst and
/etc/driver_aliases immediately before and after installation, they'd have a 
pretty good
idea of what they'd removed that they'd have to restore), and non-function of 
the
compatibility devices tell me that on SPARC, it needs a little more work.  
Maybe not all
that much; I can see that within a year they might be all they could be.  But 
for now,
they're barely usable on SPARC, depending on the specific hardware in question.
