It’s better than its been, but it still lags behind Windows. It’s like 80% plug and play, 15% can-work-if-you-fiddle-with-it, and 5% doesn’t work. That’s the real reason it hasn’t taken off, IMO - people won’t switch devices unless you give them a compelling reason, and all of the compelling reasons to switch to Linux are things the average user really doesn’t care about.
