    Indeed, Veritas has contributed significantly to kernel
    development, but I can't remember ever seeing anything but
    troubled users from companies like nvidia or vmware.

Considering the fact we are much more likely to hear complaints when
things are broken and people are seeking a fix than praise otherwise,
I think this is a little unfair.  For the vast numbers of nvidia users
I don't think there are that many problems reported and I'm not
convinced the CURRENT nvidia drivers are necessarily doing anything
bad[1].

[1] People are welcome to provide code to prove me wrong.  I use the
    nv hardware at times and it works very well, the machines don't
    suffer filesystem corruption, crashes or memory leaks.
