Re: [opensuse] Ideal Linux desktop hardware

I'm wanting to build myself a new desktop PC for home shortly as my current
one is getting long in the tooth (Athlon +XP 2600!)

I was wondering if anyone knows of a hardware review site that specifically
looks at hardware from a Linux users point of view?

Am thinking Intel CPU and chipset with nVidia graphics although my current
nForce chipset board has never been that stable under Linux.

I asked a similar question some time ago. You can find good hardware -
all supported well. But you will ever have trouble with the graphics
adapter. I tried ati a well as nvidia and was never convinced.

Where is the fully open source graphic card driver??
