Kubuntu Vs Vista Hardware Compatibility?

I have not tried 7.10 beta on the other hand, but I have found after installing Ubuntu on slightly a few PC's, that it's all due to the hardware configuartion, most of the time Ubuntu works flawlessly right out of the proceeds, but sometimes it requires some tweaking to get everything working. I'm not a Linux expert by any system, but I have found that mostly it's pretty undemanding to get Ubuntu up and running near most hardware configurations built within the closing 5 years or so.
Well, considering Vista spends half of it's processor time trying to enforce DRM , I'm not surprised DVD duplication is a disaster,
