Do you suppose that since the driver developers get paid by the hardware
makers to write Windows drivers that they do it for that reason? They do it
for the money. And since you want free driver support for your free OS there
just might be very little incentive to pay to have drivers written for
Linux? For no money. I don't know what they are paying but I would think
that writing drivers for four people, give or take a few more, would not
even be be on the 'list of important things to do'.

Think about this that way.

Not going to make any headway. Remember what he wrote? You're just
reinforcing his "they are all just greedy corporations!" argument.

Besides, there are people who have volunteered to write drivers
at no charge.

Ultimately, it boils down to this: Logitech owns something. Craig
wants that something. Logitech is (probably) willing to let Craig
have it, but Craig is (probably) unwilling or unable to pay the price.

So, Craig is complaining.
