I started looking for a new laptop.  I'd like one that can play  
Neverwinter Nights with open source drivers.  Obviously that is a  
problem since 3D support without the binary drivers is not great.  I  
figured since the game is rather old a good cpu (or two for the duo)  
and a well supported open source driver (I remember hearing Intel  
having released an open source driver) that it could run reasonably.   
I asked some linux laptop vendors and everyone told me that I would  
need the binary drivers.  Are they right and we still can't run a 5  
year old game?  Am I stuck waiting for nouveau?
