"Yes, how can they have full acpi support and linux can't? "
Perhaps it's not as full as they say it is? Perhaps they have a different definition of "full"? What does "full ACPI support" mean anyway? That the entire specification is supported or that it actually *works* with all ACPI implementations?

Yes, how can they have full acpi support and linux can't? Were they able to license it from someone (forgive my ignorance of it's origins) and include it because it's commercial, perhaps?
