But then there are a lot of desktops that run just fine without OpenGL. 3D really wasn't in a great state even in x86 until Fedora 15 with a lot of drivers only doing it partially or not at all, even now there's only really 3 well supported sets of HW that are well supported with 3D in Fedora... ie Intel, AMD/ATI and nVidia and even those aren't perfect yet. I don't see how full OpenGL support should be an argument because there's still really on a subset of x86 hardware that currently supports it.
