Linspire It seems to me that a lot of attention lately in the commercial Linux development area has concentrated on either large enterprise customers, or wooing the home user who can barely turn a computer on. Even distros claiming to offer the perfect solution for both ends of the spectrum don't quite seem to fit what I am looking for.

"the unfortunate thing is that the majority of the problems lay with the hardware vendor and not with Linux or you, the end consumer. Hopefully with enough protests, these companies will actually work WITH the Linux community."

Yep, as soon as these hardware companies can take a minute away from grovelling before MS, more of them can get around to making drivers for Linux and BSD. It's really a shame that so many of them are dragging their feet on this.
