Well, Brian, its true regarding older hardware, lets not be blind about all the
post x1*** - 6*** cards, they are actually okay.

Also, "3D is important" is a bit exaggerated, because 3D pipeline and
*everything* except this bug work really fine. There are many factors in play
on modern desktop for it to "just work", but this only one bug really damages
it.

On the other hand, its so damn shame that no one wants to give a look, even if
offered full remote access to affected machine, in do what you want, ask what
you wish, mode. :(
