I certainly prefer native Linux compatibility, and preferably libre
licensed firmware.  The latter part may not be possible, but if there
is such a thing, I'd be interested.  The thing is, I'm a non-Windows -
and nearly non-proprietary - 'shop' now.  I prefer to pay for hardware
and software that supports libre software to the extent that is
possible.
