Just make sure, if it doesn't work, that you return it for a FULL
refund and tell them why.
Surely a better approach would be to simply not buy it if you're not
sure? _Then_ you send a note to their marketing department saying "Your
product XYZ packaging does not clearly indicate whether or not it's
Linux compatible therefore I have purchased product ABC from your
competitor's range instead."
I actually was trying to employ such an approach by searching for some
sort of compatibility database or matrix, but my "soich was to no
avail". I did look at the database on xlr8yourmac and many posts on
cdfreaks but came up with nothing conclusive. I definitely did not find
anything (starting from google) that satisfied my linux information
needs. Also, the units that I did find info on such as a couple of
plexar and lg units, I couldn't find (conveniently) available in the
marketplace. I was (and am) somewhat short on time and so could not do
extensive searches.
