It's nice if you have money and can buy apple or microsoft porducts and if you really enjoy them - I don't worry about you. But there are other operation systems mainly based on the linux kernel: linux, unix and bsd families.
If you try to use them, you will see you have another problem: hardware support. Not everyone writes drivers for his nice devices for linux. Pity...
So, the best way to use all the advantages of your computer's hardware under linux is to buy computer with supported hardware. It's easy and clear for everyone, I suppose. But how can I check wich hardware will work and wich wont. Google has the fitst answer for you :)
