That BITES man. Specially for a company such as Nvidia which provides superior
hardware. Why didn't they have it available as open source? Those skunks. Anyway, I
just snapped up a nice DDR Geforce card and I can't wait to test this puppy out. I am

a loyal Abit/Asus MB person and Anand and company seem to be going with GigaX, Tyan,
etc now. Any thoughts on this matter? TIA.
