One of the knocks on desktop Linux has been in the mobile world, where users still complain there isn't robust driver support for wireless options. According to Tom's Hardware, HP Europe has been working with distributors of Ubuntu Linux "to offer its customers an operating system that is tailored to work 100 percent with the hardware - including wired and wireless network, Bluetooth IrDA and IEEE1394 - of selected notebooks. Supported devices are the notebook models nx6110, nc6120, nc6220, nc6230, and nc6000." However, it doesn't appear that the program is expanding to the U.S. anytime soon.
