You got it.
While abstractions are important, the metric that alters corporate behavior is cash.
I bought a Dell D620 from emperor linux and chose intel across the board, and was rewarded by getting better video performance as a result of this driver.
Now, you could ask yourself, what mysterious reason makes video and wireless drivers lag so much in the open source realm, but why screw up a lovely Friday with caustic speculation?
Best,
Chris
