Yeah I second Ken's reply to this - Windows has exactly the same problems at the moment. Especially with Windows 7 64bit. I have clients that have sound card problems that are unresolvable because the driver doesn't support Win7 properly. Others have all sorts of other issues getting things to work - webcams, fingerprint readers, extra stuff. Its not roses on the other side either...
