The only thing is most hardware vendors don't care about the people buying the product. The reason ATI/nVidia won't release their drivers open source is because they are afraid that their competition will steal their ideas. But look at Intel, they've been doing it for a while know and I don't see them going out of business anytime soon. Really, it's more a business thing than a morals thing. I doubt you'd get any change out of the companies, but I'll sign the petition anyway; Worth a shot. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGEnQ0/o7Q/FCvPe0RAtIFAKCLUUNJ6cRYU/IQkZA/N2YCkGrzMQCeNutF jyMv9m00t1C8Pe3HSaEmMsE= =Zwbv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
