Nvidia display cards are worser... and even with proprietary drivers. ATI Radeon has good OSS support...including 3D acceleration etc. On laptops, most of the models have light cards.... with limited capabilities. Avoid radeon 1650 though...some people have reported strange problems on all OS ...on all drivers. See phonix.com for reviews too Best A. Mani -- A. Mani Member, Cal. Math.
