Is "maintain your own operating system" really better in your mind? Does that sound like a viable alternative?
It's not old hardware that's the problem, it's new hardware which isn't supported. And unlike desktops, there's a lot less in the way of hardware options on a lappie, you take what you get, you get what you can afford, and often that means running on what someone else chooses. -- -bill davidsen (davidsen@tmr.com) "The secret to procrastination is to put things off until the last possible moment - but no longer" -me - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
