Yeah. When you buy Windows you do get that for your hundred-odd bucks.
Microsoft will have twisted manufacturers' arms to get device drivers.
Lately my HP printer will only print PDF and Postscript images properly
if I connect it to a WinXP machine and run the files through Samba and
IrfanView. If I try on Ubuntu I get one or two lines of printing and a
long, long wait.
