Yes it does. Last video cards I bought were an ATi Radeon HD 4550 and (years ago) a GeForce 3. Both worked perfectly for me (after downloading drivers).
I have two Sound Blaster Live! cards at home that I also purchased at Best Buy, that also worked without issue.
Let me introduce you to Slackware. Slackware requires:
* 486 processor
* 64MB RAM (1GB+ suggested)
* About 5GB+ of hard disk space for a full install
* CD or DVD drive (if not bootable, then a bootable USB flash stick or PXE server/network card)
Well, not in the consumer market at least. If you remember NeXTSTEP, IRIX, AIX, HP-UX, among others, that only ran on certain hardware. And Windows locks you into x86 based computers.
Get the popcorn... this is going to be an epic thread. We've already had the "Wish I was there" post, it's time for the feminist wing to turn up. Oh the objectification!
This is slashdot. I have yet to see a feminist wing.
Re:Most "Features" Have Nothing To Do With Fedora

Fedora 12 Beta Released

Most of these features that are listed are from the Red Hat and Fedora teams, and some make it upstream. DRI2 is pushed by RH/Fedora, Network Manager was created by Red Hat, and Fedora adds features to GNOME that have made it into upstream. Fedora stands out because they have many features before other distributions because Red Hat contributes much code to these projects.
In the few test situations I've run Windows 7 in (My laptop (1.7GHz Celeron M, 1.5G RAM, ATi XPress 200m), my desktop (2GHz Pentium Dual-Core, 3GB RAM, ATi Radeon HD 4550), a Dell GX270 (3.2GHz P4 HT, GeForce 6200, 2GB RAM), and a Dell SX280 (3 GHz P4 HT, 1GB RAM, Intel i915 Graphics) I have seen it out perform XP, especially as RAM increases. With 1 GB they seem fairly even, at 2 7 is faster, and above 2 XP can't compete. Also, much better drivers for 64-bit 7 then XP.
I would say that the motherboard would seem to support 64-bit. I've been running 64-bit Linux (Fedora 8-10, now Slackware64) for quite some time, and my install of Windows 7 is 64bit.
btw, numbers used to be higher, but I just archived the old secure logs, and have seen a massive drop in attacks since I started using denyhosts. Root used to see ~10k attacks in a week.
I see a lot of seemingly valid logins (could be valid, but not on my system...)

so, we have 6 that often are valid, a very common name, two that almost could be valid (info and webmaster), and one nonsense. Only one account on that system has ssh allowed, and it's certainly not root.

So what actually didn't work? You never stated the problem.
Because its commercial competitor (Sharepoint) doesn't require any do it yourself code/hacks...
I don't think any of the circuits in my house are > 15A (excluding the huge AC unit, which is 30A on its own circuit).
Slackware installs a DE by default. Just not GNOME. And, Slackware works just as well for the average user as Ubuntu does.
I have my CD-Drive on the IDE bus on my 486. Now, being able to boot to it is another story...

I haven't had any issues with picking up hardware from Best Buy and dropping it in Linux systems for years.
Because we have 64bit flash in Windows and Mac OS...

Doesn't only apply to Geocities owners - I can't access Yahoo! mail either (First web site was on angelfire).

I don't know too many people that are still using Ubuntu - they switched to either Fedora or Debian.
Send feature request to Red Hat and Fedora teams? They wrote Network Manager afterall.
Perhaps RTF isn't the format you want. The format lacks the advanced features of ODF and OOXML, and in my experience doesn't support images.
My school didn't. They recomended Open Office to people who did not have MS Office, and the "weird" guy in IT was using TeX.
Generally you should extract to /usr/src for compiling software. That's central self-compiled software directory,.
If you can prove it.

It does appear that the '> at the end is an error

Plenty do. Slackware, Fedora, CentOS, Debian, just to name a few.
