An idea: To really put some pressure on vendors, also have an entry
for "alternate/better solution" where people can list a way to
achieve the same result with someone else's product and open
drivers. Example:





Product: Matrox parhelia (a triplehead graphichs card)
Reason: Bad binary-only 2D-only driver



Please add it here, using the 'template'.

Done. I didn't recommend any particular brand when describing
the "alternate solution", as you didn't want that. The reason for
specifying a brand was only to create more pressure than
"use a couple of supported cards instead".
