I gotta disagree. I've been with FreeBSD for 5 years now and this is the first time I've ever found it not supporting some hardware. I had eventually come to the conclusion that FreeBSD seems to support EVERYTHING under the sun, and that people who thought otherwise were just going on outdated info. Maybe I've just never been bleeding-edge before. :-)
