| Chip) runs the Linux equivalent of Aero, XGL very well and there is no
| chance my laptop would ever run Aero, so it kinda begs the question
| of where is all that horse power going.

| Gutmann: The genie's out of the bottle before the operating system has even

| the computer community at large - won't end up paying for Microsoft's
| DRM folly. At the risk of repeating myself repeating myself, yet
| another reason to move to Linux.
