they tend to have different versions of software, eg; Ubuntu/Kubuntu --------/---------- Fspot/Digikam Gimp/Krita Gnucash/Kmymoney Evolution/Kontact

fortunately for you, there are completely 'free' linux operating systems for you to choose from. for myself, i will happily see distro's ship with binary drivers until that happy day when graphics vendors feel they can open source their drivers without getting caught up in patent infringement...

probably opensuse with YAST. i use suse 10.1 with the KDE desktop every day on the work notebook, brilliant.

if the 8600U is a 256bit part with 7900GTx performance I will buy a pair to stick in my short depth HTPC case.

the Inq again: http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=37203 they say 256bit for the 8600, but the translated link makes no mention of memory bandwidth. I sincerely hope it is 256bit!

shame it uses the same PCB, i'd get it if would fit in my LC16-M case.

what worries me is the indication on the Hardforums that the Ultra may be delayed until Q3. :(

if this is the case, then it would inded make a good upgrade. :)

http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=36963 based off the 8600 spec: 500Mhz core 64 shaders 1400Mhz memory 256bit do you think this card would be significantly faster than my XFX 7950GT? i would buy an 8800GTS now, except i need a card that is no longer than a 7950GT or...

if i had a PC that could make good use of an 8800GTX then I would get that, if not i would opt for the PS3 and put linux on it.

lower the price and this sounds great. good compromise between size and ability to drive the res in 3D

if the price of the 27" sorts itself out then it will be a breat monitor.

did this kernel problem affect Sabayon, which has also been released with vanilla 2.6.19 kernel versions?

you tell them!
