When buying new hardware for a linux system, should I only pick hardware that has linux drivers?

I am new to linux. I want to construct a new computer that will operate linux. Should I only choose hardware (like a TV tuner card or a sound card) for which there are already linux drivers or are there always workarounds for getting every piece of hardware working on linux even if there are no drivers? Are these workarounds easy to implement or will I spend a lot of time and effort trying to get the hardware to work?

How to make a Gantt Chart in openoffice Spreadsheet

I had to put together one of these for a proposal for college and it took me quite a while as I couldn’t find any tutorials for openoffice. I wound up doing it on a windows PC with excel which is something I never like to have to do. I was able to apply how it was done to open office after I’d done it though so I put together this tutorial for anyone that winds up stuck as I was. All the best, I hope that this video helps you. It’s my first tutorial video so I hope people are able to get some info from it without being bored to tears.
