I suspect the one you mentioned isn't sold any more. I found a
Brother HL-L2300D which is a basic monochrome laser. There's a
Samsung with WIFI that costs less but I hear brother a lot in the
context of printers. Both it and the Samsung have XP drivers.

The Samsung printer division was bought by HP.
As to why, we can only guess.

Brother printers tend to have Linux drivers available,
which is why you might see them discussed a bit more.
