Hardware Drivers. In SuSE, ALL the hardware is detected and installed automatically! How is this harder than Windows' constant disc changing and rebooting?

I do stumble across it but its not intentional, its probably the hardest thing to avoid on the net. I'm not pretending to be a saint – when i was in my teens it was a different story.
