But they do so as a binary... that is just great in a OSS/FS world, right?
Fine, they produce a binary, and do not provide developer docs to interface
with their chips as ATI and Intel does. Linux binary does not help out
developers of OS/2 drivers for example, thus on OS/2 we run with the Intel
on-board chip. 'tis not a perfect world all around.

But I will get my own taste if the ThinkPad I am interested in is still nVidia
when I get it.
