Narf Man:
I live only 30 minuets from the M$ HQ, and I know several people who work at M$, so I get to hear rumors from time to time (most of what I hear is bull, but once in a while it pans out). Anyway, I have heard the rumor that upcoming versions of windows will only use MSHQL drivers, and ignore ones not certified for "stability reasons".

I hope that's not the case! I'm the tech guy for my family and I really don't want to fight the machine to make my uncle's Lexmark printer work.

That's your problem right there.  No need to blame MS for that one.

Narf Man:
Pffft! Not my printer!

Talk to my uncle about that one. In my family, cheap=good (which usually ends up in headaches for me when x doesn't work).

My Lexmark Z52, plugged into a Windows 95 box, "broke" two years ago.  A couple months ago, I plugged it into my Linux box, and, somehow, it started working (just needed new ink).

I've always loved that thing....
