Thank you for this article. I wish I had read it BEFORE I bought my new computer. Why doesn't Intel provide info on how to fix this? I mean, if I understand you right they even made the drivers for windows, not only helped the folks at Microsoft. So at least they should provide the necessary info so other people who don't want to run Windows can create the required drivers for their OSes, too.

Right now I'm thinking about turning the bought computer back in, and choose another one, then maybe without Intel inside. At least one thing's for sure: I will be VERY careful next time when looking for a new computer, and if Intel doesn't change their policy about support for other OS this will have been the last Intel product I've ever purchased.
