I disagree. In fact I tend to ignore that. There have been many occasions when hardware I buy that's advertised as "Linux Compatible" turns out to function poorly under Linux. Very frequently my best experiences are with hardware that the manufacturer never bothers to advertise as Linux compatible and yet it works flawlessly. This issue is more complex than you suggest. For this reason I poll mailing lists and newsgroups for advice from people who have had good experiences with their hardware under Linux. This has consistently provided me good results.
