This makes me feel like i'm going to break a leg soon. I've never had
any problem finding hardware. Scanners, AIs, graphic cards,
midicontrolers.... PCIe-cards.... What am i doing right?
You just have good luck and much money.
Actually, just the oposite. The cheaper AIs are more used and better
supported.
I not necessarily buy my hardware. I use hardware from trash, I borrow
hardware from neighbours.
What you find in a trash can or what your neighbours lend you most
likely can be used with a Windows machine, but not with a Linux machine.
That has generally not been my experience. Most likely they tossed it
because windows doesn't work with it any more. There have been times when
as much as 80% of my running HW was "hand me down".
That said, I was careful with my new MB/CPU purchase... but that is 1 out
of 6 Linux machines in the house.
