    If you're wondering why nVIDIA cards weren't reviewed, I've put up a couple of pages with information about the company and the saga of their "Linux support". The current rumor is that they have binary only drivers for XFree86 4.0 using their own straight-to-hardware pipeline (instead of DRI), and they're not really concerned about Linux users in general.
