Basically, yes. The problem is that they keep coming out with new chips for
all the internals. (Ethernet? Wifi? They've been making those with the
same capabilities for how many years, why do they need a new chip? But I
digress.) Then they don't bother making drivers for the new stuff for older
versions of Windows. If you really want Win7 and that machine, you could
find out exactly what hardware it has and try to find drivers before buying.
Or you could install Linux, and run Windoze in Virtualbox.
