I should add that nvidia, contrary to ati, never made me cry out loud
for better driver, and having UNRELEASED xserver is my own fault. With
LATEST STABLE xserver 1.4 and latest driver i am more than happy with
my 8600gt playing nexuiz, openarena and warsow.

This thread reminds me rants of people who fail offroad having sports car
