I assumed, since you are writing to a Fedora newsgroup/mailing list,
that you were talking about using closed drivers under Fedora.
If you are talking about Windows drivers under Windows OS
I don't really see the relevance.
The relevance is that the Linux faithful like to regurgitate the lines about
how stable interfaces and binary drivers can't work when in fact they work
just fine and the majority of the world runs on them taking advantage of the
vendor's expertise and desire for a competitive advantage. Just a reality
check...
