This aspect of ComputerLife cannot be ignored, Open Source alternative video drivers, are making leaps and bounds, in some cases surpassing their propriety counterparts.
Gaming on Linux is a major driving force behind this trend. I am a MS Windows User since version 3.0, and although I love Mac's I can not justify the extra price, PC's are it for me, I can work on them, I can repair them, and I can install all sorts of software that in my mind is just as good as the priority stuff.
The biggest bottleneck so far has been VD's ( video drivers )
I can't wait until next year, and purchasing my first tablet computer. And I promise I won't complain when I realize 2 or 3 years down the road it's broken, and I will customarily dispose of it, because there is nothing inside of it you can fix. So I'll buy a new one, and the OS video driver performance will have improved ( by then I'm perdicting 5 fold ) and then I am planning a trip to Mars, and a short hop skip and jump to the Star Trek Federation Headquarters.
LOL :_)
Tri-Corders here I come!
