Now we have hardware ASIC that depend on the most part a (dll in windows) or .ko .o file under linux to provide the entire instruction set. Think Winmodems, Winprinters etc....
Well, winmodem case is the only I could *almost* understand closed-source drivers: the algorithms used *are* the modem. It's not a simple firmware upload. What I really don't understand are graphic cards producers... If what they say about the card is true, then there's no "advanced" algorithm in the driver, just (at most) a firmware uploader (that's better suited off-kernel anyway)...
