you understand little about what you're talking about.

hardware is either supported or not.

the "work" you mention on old wifi cards is to get a driver that was never contributed in any official way. hence unsupported.

Linux have more hardware support out of the box than anything, ever.

just educate yourself before purchasing.

This reminds me of certain countries that define literacy as the ability to sign ones name.

Linux driver support for a large fraction of hardware is incomplete at best.
