The specific model is not meant/optimized/made for Linux. That's it. They have said that it does not support Linux, it doesn't. It is their choice to make model A capable of handling both Linux & Windows. It is their choice of making model B not being able to run Linux or Windows.

They are NOT harming Linux. The model states that Vista certified. And that's what it is.
