Hi Matthew, you are one of the leading ones in nvidia development and i think 
you know Chopra very well. dont you? What do you say to my chat with chopra on 
#freebsd on undernet.org at 2002-09-07 ?


<chopra> IronIan: I couldn't tell you when the driver will be out, since
I don't know
<chopra> and even if, I couldn't tell you
<chopra> so it's a double bing
<chopra> bind even
> chopra: Its so boring not using a GForce4 nore the 3d stuff and hoping
for a good end
*** chopra has set the topic: "ade@ resigns | NVIDIA sucks | shitload of
CPUTYPE changes in -CURRENT"
> chopra: But writing your lines i think you was sure about a fast
release, wasnt you?
<chopra> no
> ???
<chopra> I was taunting NVIDIA
<chopra> about half an hour before the last post they sent me a list of
requirements for a driver release
<chopra> we had every single point filled within 30 minutes, including
commits to the repo
<chopra> which is exactly when I posted
<chopra> they were trying to bullshit us and buy time
<chopra> be honest, or shut up
<chopra> otherwise fuck off
<chopra> I'm not dealing with them anymore
<chopra> and I'm not buying any of their cards either
<chopra> since, technically, other offerings are superior
