Last time I checked, code signing certificates could be had for $400 a year, not an exorbitant price to many tech enthusiasts.

However, being able to support the driver so it passes the certification process with every update is not something many tech enthusiasts would want to do.

Certification is only required if you want to display a "Certified for Windows" logo, prevent a warning dialog from displaying on Windows XP, and/or distribute your driver through Windows Update.

The warning dialogue is displayed on all versions of Windows, depending on the driver. Some can't be installed at all.
