Re: [Trisquel-users] No wifi, can't remove Mini 7

The best thing you can do is avoid bad hardware from the start and then you  
won't run into these types of problems when you want to switch- or upgrade to  
a more recent version of your favorite distribution. No matter what  
distribution your using your prone to run into problems with this type of  
poorly supported hardware. It's dependent on code the community can't  
properly support as the sources aren't available.

HP and Toshibia are horrible choices imho. They both do things that hinder  
users adoption of free software and then some. They're using digital  
restrictions on the wifi slot for example. That means you can't even replace  
it with something that is free software friendly should it not work and a  
significant percentage of the time systems don't ship with cards that will  
work with 100% free software. Other bad choices include: Dell, Sony, Apple,  
Acer, Lenovo, and IBM. These companies do the same.
