Exactly.
I do like the speed of the nvidia driver, of course! But I also need to
suspend, because it is way faster than reboot, and I don't have to restart
all my apps with the current status and such. I like to come back with the
browser open and OOo with the opened calc sheet, etc.
If I'm bored and want to play, then I just change to the nvidia driver and
fire up a game. As I don't have it prepared at this momemt, I can't be
easily tempted to "play" ;-)
