In the future I would advise using http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/ or some other linux compatibility hardware list before buying hardware. Using linux on a poorly supported device can cause you grief and make you dislike linux for reasons that it does not deserve.

1. I don't dislike linux, it doesn't support my hardware and so I don't use it. As simple as that.

2. There are other more important things I look for in a laptop than if it runs linux or not. No disrespect, if I get a decent graphics card at this price point, I would say hell yeah! (There was a discount in the store on the same day as I blew my last computer. RIP Sophiya)

I was hoping to coax you into giving linux another try in the future on a machine that is more amenable to running linux.
