Hopefully if Broadcom gets their feet in first, they will convince all the others to follow a single standard like they did with the short lived HPNA networking cards. HPNA net cards are one of the only peripherals (possibly the only ones) in recent times, where all manufacturers followed the same standard so there is only 1 driver that works for every brand of card. Microsoft and others should learn something from them instead of screwing the public by using proprietary standards that are incompatible with other versions. We still haven't got web browsers that will work on every site, and it's the web developers who take the brunt having to write 3 or 4 different versions of a website to work with incompatible browsers. |
