=09Hello,

=09I am writing an article about manufacturers who refuse to disclose=20
information about devices to driver designers. The main point in the arti=
cle=20
is how this is helping to keep the Microsoft monopoly, and that device=20
manufacturers should disclose that information as a prerequisite to sell=20
their devices. Device support is an important barrier for any operating=20
system to get to the market.

=09Can you please send me a list of manufacturers who refuse to provide t=
hat=20
information?

=09Thanks,




=09Borja.

P.S: I hope this is not an off-topic. I think this is one of the better=20
places to ask this ;-)
