The only caveat with the nvidia cards would be the decided lack of OpenGL.
Once someone ports the Linux kernel module that is required, the newest
drivers should work.  Until then the nvidia cards are not ideal for using
any kind of hardware GL under NetBSD.  The Matrox G400 Max might be a better
choice considering the support for DRI under XFree86 4.0.1.

If you just want fast 2D under NetBSD and fast 2D/3D under your GUI Game
Loader, then the nvidia cards would be _ideal_ for you.  I would suggest
checking with pricewatch.com as a lowend GeForce256 can be had for about $130
which would be a better deal than many TNT2 cards.  Unless you get a TNT2-M64
which is basically the same speed as an original TNT card.
