I'm still holding out hope that the open sourced video card project (of which I can't recall the name) will have some degree of success. It'll likely be some time before they'll even be able to release a (conservative) moderately powerful graphics card. The likelyhood of them competing with nVidia is fairly low, but I suppose that the same was once said of AMD versus Intel. -- Anthony Gorecki Ectro-Linux Foundation
