I buy NVIDIA hw precisely (and only) because of good drivers. So elanthis has got point, even if that alone is not the sole reason and/or not enough to be an actual market leader.

Add me to that list.
I like to play games occasionally so I need drivers that provide reasonable accelerated 3D performance without huge amounts of work, or problems with instability. If the drivers were up to scratch I'd happily switch to ATI, but it looks like that's years away, and I'm not even sure that gap is actually closing.

OK, that's two. I'm sure Nvidia's market share went up 5 points already ;-)

You forgot to count-in the initial poster :)

Sugar! Sorry. In latest news, Nvidia up 10 points ;-)

Is this exponential? We could find some more followers, ya'know! :)

Absolutely! For every one person that picks Nvidia because they have the best drivers, the percentage points of market share go up exponentially. And it can go above 100%, of course :-)
