because it sucks.

I think we will soon be at a level, where the open source drivers are may not be the fastest drivers but they will deliver a solid opengl implementation, for pretty much every ati and intel gpu. just release firefox with the option to enable gpu acceleration and the developers will fix bugs in the drivers within weeks.

slashdot could at some point bring a good news for the german people ;) we have an online petition against internet censorship going that gathered 60.000 people to sign in like 4 days ;) so not all german people are willing government idiots... mostly the people dont know better... they've been told so much shit by the media in the last months they actually believe that stuff like first person shooters or paintball or whatever are responsible. and then there are a lot people who simply dont care, because neither videogames nor paintball effect them.
