Ahem, yeah, it's not a bright idea to sue your own customers, ya know,
the ones buying your products (think SCO here) and generating your
revenue.  The day nVidia would file such a lawsuit, they'd instantly
lose the vast majority of their Linux customers to AMD/ATI and Intel,
essentially signaling they are voluntarily leaving the Linux GPU market.

Ain't gonna happen.
