I really strongly disagree with the scoring! It is almost absurd.

  • Freespire: everything worked in Freespire: 16 points.
  • Kubuntu: CD players and Real (both cited as a requirement) did NOT work: 18 points.
  • PCLinuxOS: WiFi did NOT work: 19 points !
  • Xandros: mouse doesn't work (!!!) : 19 points

In a word, WTF ??? The scoring seems completely arbitrary and subjective.
