Um, sure. The drivers are the hard part. How are you going to get a copy of them? By email Dell?

If they really had first-class programmers then the WM2003 fiasco (when the first ROM for the X5 was glacially slow) would never had happened.
I'm not sure I follow. Because they are learning they aren't good programmers?
