This is true for all laptop makers. There seems to always be at least one proprietary piece of hardware, often from a third party, which the manufacturers simply don't want to spend money on updating and so don't. This goes way back, even on desktops and cellphones.

The only solution is to stop buying hardware.

The irony is that "generic" laptops/desktops/cellphones tend to not have this problem because the assemblers don't bother trying to be fancy.
