Yeah that is a good point, but I dunno. I think there is an in-between just
because some cards have been worked on a long time and are a lot more
stable than others. I mean wouldn't the Radeon still be a yellow because a
lot of it is not yet working or not as stable as the r128 (for example) ?

True, maybe one of the developers can answer this. So far I have only
looked at the Linux/x86 side of things. How are other platforms and OSes
like BSD doing? I would like to keep the page going because it gives a nice
overview.
