 yes, for goodness sake yes.  people like chris who actually puts R&D
funding into "it just works because the drivers are libre" hardware
are pretty rare, and if they're not still in business because people
prioritise "low price" over everything else, we (collectively) lose.

 *sigh* i know - that's why i'm running a win7 qemu as there's
strategically critical software to this project that simply has no
viable alternative in the software libre world.  it's a bitch, but i
can genuinely say i really *really* tried using the libre alternatives
and... well.. sadly... they sucked.

 not at all.
