update: the ati radeon video card problems

[Olivier Fourdan]

Hi Jay,

I would say go with NVidia, I am not an NVidia employee, I have no money
in NVidia, and I've seen a couple of problems with NVidia cards too, but
when it comes to Linux and OpenGL it's clearly the best choice (at least
for me).

The fact that they have an in-house Linux/XFree driver gives NVidia my
vote.

Cheers,
Olivier.
