But all the big consumer PC brands like Dell, HP, Vaio, Gateway, etc. are Riddled with exclusive deals. By the time they can think of distributing these cards in their PCs the next generation will be out.
Remember, all those years when AMD had amazing processors, the couldn't gain market share because most re-sellers were stuck with long term intel-exclusive deals ....
Same with what's stopping linux now... It was unfit for consumer use for a long time.. But with distro's like Ubuntu, It is mature enough for everyone, but Microsoft exclusive deals and Fears of not able to use proprietary appls like Yahoo! Messenger voice chat, that microphone, google talk, videos on ABC.com, etc. stop ppl from migrating en=masse
