This is simply wrong. Most laptops ship either with Ati or Intel chipset. Both tend to be well supported. With a bit care, you will get wpi as wireless chipset (e.g. avoid draft n). I found ACPI compliance to have improved a lot over the recent time and in fact the number of ACPI bugs that can't be worked around in general ways has become very low.
