I have had people make arguments both ways. I have always wanted to include AGP, because we are targetting a lot of people who already have systems with AGP. If I can help it, we'll have AGP. But the thing is, anyone with AGP also has PCI, and if it's "fast enough" with PCI, how much do we care about AGP? Really, those with AGP aren't excluded. They're just at a disadvantage relative to those who have AGP cards. But there are lots of disadvantages to OGA; they're just ones we are willing to tolerate because we demand open source drivers. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
