Well, like I said the vast majority of Win9X only hardware works very poorly even in Win9x and the majority of hardware that works well under NT (which most reviewers will at least mention) also works well under Linux. > the drivers are more complete.

I've never been very impressed with those types of sites and certainly wouldn't take their recomendataions too seriously even if I were only interested in Windows. > I'd rather not have to sign up to a > mailing list for each type of hardware just to find out what my best buying > options are. No need to sign up for anything, virtually all mailing lists are archived and in many cases the big search engines such as deja will carry them as well. While your over at deja you can check out both the Linux news groups as well as groups specific to the hardware you are looking for. I guarentee the folks over in alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.abit know far more about the latest Abit motherboard (for example) than any reviewer Cnet has to offer. -- Ray Of course it's very possible that I'm just dreaming and such a > site doesn't exist yet. > > -- > Bart Szyszka [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ:4982727 > GigaBee Interactive http://www.gigabee.com > PayPal - Securely send money to an e-mail user! > https://secure.paypal.com/refer/[EMAIL PROTECTED] >
