Microsoft pays good money to vendors to improve the hardware for windows.
Outside of hardware primarly used under Linux, you won't have much luck paying any vendor money to improve that situation. You'll have to suck it up and make it work anyway by patching the kernel.
>Linux it will run on whatever terrible machine you got on sale at Walmart with a Vista certified sticker.
Vista? I have upgraded people to Linux with 98 stickers and earlier. These people won't buy new machines, the current machine will have to work.
There won't be a "next computer" for some of them.
