From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

They could they just include a DP to HDMI adapter in the box and have no HDMI ports on the GPU maybe?

They’re currently what 15% of the market? Nvidia would happily swoop in and pick up some more market share.

Ehh Nvidia doesn’t care about the graphics card market anymore. Look at the cash AI is raking in for them.
