@chriswoI don't agree. They aren't writing their own drivers because there isn't yet a big market for their products on Linux. If that changes in the future then the companies that don't produce their own Linux drivers when they ship their products will lose out to the companies that do. But the only way Linux is going to get more users is if a lot of the existing products are already working and the only way that will happen for most of these unsupported devices is if motivated developers reverse engineer and write their own drivers.

@dkoonA) No way should expletives be used in that manner. If you're going to swear, f**king get it right. (Also, the defense of Microsoft isn't worth swearing over)B) Based on the way you commented, I am led to believe that you have no idea what you're talking about, and that you have never run Linux before. Only once have I ever encountered a Linux distribution that did not work with all of my hardware, and that is because I have a nVidia graphics card with a widescreen res, but, getting back to the point:C) You misquoted the actual number of drivers. For future reference, please recall that it is 235.D) Your misquote leads me to believe that you couldn't be bothered to actually read the article. ( "Dear God, they actually want me to read?!! The horror!" )E) Who is f**king hell? I was unaware that hell had a gender.F) Linux is a communal effort, in which people work together to make an OS that works. You want it to do something special, you code it yourself. That's what makes it so secure and so desirable. G) Other THAN the manufacturers. Please learn to spell before you decide to post your thoughts where everyone can see them.H) It should work right away. Your grammar is also substandard. I) Windows SUCKS.J) The only reason that those cameras are PnP or that the driver works with Windows, is that Microsoft has about 80% market share, so any ape with 4 brain cells would make a driver for Windows. Apparently you didn't know that.K) Think about where you are posting your comment. On a LINUX story. Please think about that. If you flame LINUX on a LINUX story, what kind of response would you expect?L) It's people with your mentality that fuel the thriving of Windows. ( For the record, that mentality is the "I'm a retard, and don't know how to actually use a computer" mentality. Furthermore, you can't spell or speak properly.M) The object, "Hardware" must agree with the verb "Works". Duh.N) If this is intentional, like teh internets, stop it. You're not 1337.O) Have you ever heard of a little thing called Service Pack 2? Try installing Windows without SP2 on a laptop, and see how much hardware works. (USB 1.1 anyone?)P) You think it's worth it to be proud of Windows? Too much effort for too little truth.Q) You Suck
