Get a Mac you won't have those problems.
Hell even Ubuntu recognized the 355.

Actually Consumer Reports polled users of laptop reliably and Apple came

And my Ubuntu machine came with support for 3 media types. While my
Windows XP supports over 250+. Plus Ubuntu hits the CPU three times

turned off. I have to admit they are pretty reliable living in the off
state virtually all of the time. ;-)
