Daniel Horn, creator of Vegastrike, gave the world a brilliant open source game, and introduced me to open source softwar and linux, without which i'd still be running a windows machine.
I have an iriver ihp-140 (40gb) player.. this is awesome... I can't wait! an open source firmware means all those obscure sound formats can get supported! like.mods and flac! this is brilliant news.
Mate of mine did an internship at nvidia a few years ago, those drivers will never get gpl'd... why? you ask, simple. 80% of the code belongs to SGI. Quit whining. Open source drivers probably couldn't match nvidia's existing performance anyway.

the new xserver kicks ass.. I've got it running on my desktop, compositing is a great effect, and with proper integtration with programs, promises to change the way i use my pc for the better... btw windows don't stutter when I move them! drop shadows are sexy too.. hopefully we'll get PLG features in a compositor in the next few months.
