I think that in binary driver couls be code who is not in open source 
driver, when Intel open drivers for developes , driver should be better , 
cause anyone can do driver for intel card , so anyone who write dri driver 
for mesa or for acceleration for xorg could do driver better , why we have 
to wait for new binary drvier from intel when we have open source driver?

So mesa driver doesnt take advantage of intel way to reduce memory 
consuption ? , so opengl in windows take this , but in linux not?

ps. What is HW? (hardware? im so lame ...)
