SciTech Software Inc. announcement : Comment 188 of 195 | ANN.lu |

Just see MacOS X, it support only 2 different branded chips (ATI >and NVidia) and it's clearly enough. Even on Windows, drivers for other chips >than NVidia or ATI ones are here for compatibility issues with rather old gfx >cards (I'm speaking for the Windows XP Family edition) and are not >progressing anymore.

At least Windows 2K/XP supports multitude of video chipsets. This is good for investment protection and the environment. Anyway, not all solutions will require a fancy 3D GPU powered chip. |
