Quite. And when building a machine, that is what we all do. Unfortunately, some people have unsupported cards in boxes that they bought (usually off the shelf) before they knew about linux and friendly hardware. Others of us have to work on machines with nasty ATI cards in them, due to certain organisations having stupid contracts with PC manufacturers who, in turn, have (or _had_) a deal with said unhelpful chipset supplier. We have to be able to cope with these evils :-)
