„How hard can it be to understand the following simple sentence:
THE USER DOESN'T CARE.
Pushing the blame around doesn't help anybody.”
-- Linus Torvalds
The user really doesn't care if his problem is caused by incompatibility between the driver and the OS or lack of cooperation between driver and OS developers.
Yes, You and I can fix it, but I think that majority of new users can't. Yes, this bug affects users for few seconds when booting up, but what kind of excuse is that? Users boot up their system every day.
You may think, that statements that somebody is embarrassed when watched over his arm is somewhat silly, but impression is very important for potential users. This can be a deal breaker.
If you think, that we are wasting your precious time trying to communicate with developers here, show us better way to rise their concern in that matter.
Excuse that Windows costs money, Linux doesn't is IMO not valid too. You want to say that Linux is not in the same league?
PS You can make Windows look like OSX in no time - check out flyakiteosx.
