Ok Terry.
Maybe you right, but the real reason of this "hoopla" on nVidia's
closed driver is the fact that one is unable, for example, to correct
some specific nVidia bug for your graphic or video programme that one can
be developing. So, that's why I think that nVidia should give, at least, a
good list of specifications, on the contrary, I think, perhaps some nVidia
users can get limited and have to wait for nVidia driver release.
Actually, I'm not sure if such a impossibility will one day
happen, but I simply do not like the idea that such risk exists.
