You don't buy it? What planet are you from? Wanna know a big reason why nvidia drivers aren't open sourced? Ask SGI. These things simply are. Your reaction is like a kid plugging his ears yelling "LALALALA can't hear you! Give me a cookie!" You can't have the government going around retro activating laws which affect billions (trillions?) of dollars of industry over the last several decades to satisfy the one guy on the planets' infatuation with running old Windows games in WINE or on the ever-so-popular-please-kill-me-know ReactOS. -- m0gely _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
