Yes, that is something I try to push. In order for software and hardware
makers to want to support Linux they must see a market they can sell to.
Some will consider the cost too much and thus the more innovative
companies will make the money. Codeweavers will get lots of support from
me!

Now if I can just figure out how devfs works and what to do to add my
usb flash reader as a mountable device on gentoo, life will be good. I
used to mount it in Mandrake. Think it was a scsi device like sda, but
no such device in devfs system. Probably need to add a link to
/dev/scsi/bus/target/lun/... . But that device wasn't a block device, so
now where?
