more then one out there to use.

sadly, as it do not come preinstalled, and you would need to carry a secondary media with the installer in case you run into something that has not gotten it installed, it will not catch on.

just like how your unlikely to find a machine that can deal with cd-rw as "floppies" even tho the tech have been around for quite a while, and can install a driver on windows machines automatically on first insertion...
