I don't think its fud. I also conceed its not Linux's fault most of the time. These vendors put Windows specific hardware support into these systems. My laptop has a dozen strange keys that work only on Windows and if you push one of them in Linux, the system looses state with the keyboard and croaks ( have to reboot to recover). If I close the lid of my latop or do any other suspend to disk state, the video display is croaked.
