Fact's are fact's, who suffer's here?

Aren't we the "community" trying to promote linux? 

Look, no one in their right mind can argue that anything binary only is
good, but anyone using Open Source who installs a binary at their own
risk. And I am certain much good code has come back from the vendors to
the community in response to getting their binary only stuff working.

As far as fedora devel being happy about not allowing nvidia to load let
me know, I will but some stock in ATI :-)

Maybe I am way off base, and the amount of deployed Linux is so huge
that it can tell all the Vendors as well as Hardware engineers in the
world to go screw, its our way or the highway.


Wake up, the rainbow has risen, but still quite a few colors are
missing.
