Last time I know, nVidia went evil. Starting a few years ago they want me to make an account just because I bought and was using one of their video cards, not to say about their closed drivers and Linux, and their habit to lock by drivers high end features already existing in the chips, etc.

I hope they don't plan to close ARM, too.
