I disagree - If FBSD does not (or did not) know of the HP/Compaq tweakes 
in the microcode, how can you claim it's broken?

If MS does not support or have a driver for so-and-so app or hardware, 
does it also mean Windows is broken?

According to you, it is. According to the vast majority, it's not 
broken, it's merely unsupported.

You could say the same about your hardware based on what you just said, 
if FBSD does not have the teaks to the driver version you need, then (as 
you think) your hardware is broken.

As you stated, you can't have it both ways.

Why not just agree that both FBSD AND your hardware are broken?
Oh - I know, it worked for 8 years...

Read above to if MS don't support or have a driver for x, y, and z - 
then as you say, Windows is broken.

Can't have it both ways mate.

Know the difference.

The time it takes to rectify a situation is
inversely proportional to the time it took
to do the damage.
