First of all see this video: xgl-demo1.xvid.avi, it comes with 60mb of XGL demo video.

When Linux will work like this i will go 100% on that open source system, for sure ! Don’t be too excited, this is alpha stage for now.

But when XGL will start working with open source distribution the Linux system may win many potential users.
