    You're stretching it there on number 21.
    Just a tad I'd say...
    I am sure you are right.
    Hmmm

    I'm willing to bet that any of the major Linux distro's have more included drivers than the original XP release, XP SP1, XP SP2 CD's. Don't have XP SP2 Media Center so I don't know if any extra drivers are included....

    Linux is a slam dunk winner against Vista, IMO, still in the betting frame of mind.....

    21. Use almost any hardware and have a driver for it included with the operating system...eliminating the need to scour the internet to find the hardware manufacturer's website to locate one
    Key words "Use" and "eliminating the need to scour the internet"

    The person who wrote the article could be wrong (and I've lost bets before) but I don't think he's "stretching" things.

    The good about Windows, there is a driver made for all hardware used on the PC, that can't be said about Linux..........

    [1] The Windows drivers come in the software that comes with the hardware.

    So Ubuntu comes with drivers for almost all peripherals??

    Could you run Photo Shop with Ubuntu, with out Wine?
