  Have you heard of the Open Graphics Project?  It sounds like perhaps
you're looking for something like that.  The URL is:

    http://www.opengraphics.org

  Note, though, that the only thing they have available now is a
rather expensive model for people who want to help develop the
board, so it won't really help you right now.  But I thought you might
be interested.
