Maybe its the fault of Linux, if they didn't change the code-base so often it would be more worthwhile to support the cards for longer. See, it works both ways.

If Redmond doesn't pay you, they should.

I don't see what Nintendo has to do with this. 

Well, as Squilliam will no doubt inform you, the wii has similar video card issues. It's common knowledge that the Wii's inability to push polygons at rates similar to the 360 or any modern x86 compatible PC (with an MS owned OS), can almost entirely be ascribed to it's lack of directx support.
