Even "good" ones don't always work well for someone else. They might work well with Windows drivers, but not Linux, or vice versa. I have an issue with one of mine that way. On a dual-boot box, it's rather painful in one direction between Windows and Linux. But if I reboot that box to Linux, it works fine between itself and another Linux box. Go figure...
