Comment Unbelievable. Simply Unbelievable! (Score 1) 99
I am *very* pleasantly surprised to see the G400 chip specifications availability. With the full G200 specs taking quite a while to emerge, I was quite sure that the same delay would occur with the G400.
But the specs came out! And not only that, they're out before the video card is even on the shelves! I'm guessing that either the specs documentation is a little easier this time around, and/or Matrox is really trying the one-upmanship battle with NVidia (judging by NVidia's recent Open Source Linux drivers).
That's what great about getting hardware vendors to support Linux--you only need to convince one or two. Once that happens, the other companies will do it for fear of losing competitive advantage.
