That is a very good point about the open source cards, currently I have
been using the i740 clone chipset video card, 8 megs ram, with the
binary driver. But I see after visiting Red Hats site that intel open
sourced the binary driver. With the current cost on www.pricewatch.com
at about $37.oo US I don't think you can beat this card.
