I mostly just interface with it remotely anyway... I suspect that the others running equally outdated hardware are on a similar situation and don't use these systems for doing much production work.
We have quite a few Supermicro file and compute servers and they all have the Matrox G200eW. Also, Tyan is using Aspeed graphics chips on their boards, I use it on an S7025.

more stupid conclusions
The use of GPU compute technologies (OpenCL, CUDA, etc) still is not widespread on Linux. In part this is due to the open-source drivers lacking the compute support.
There are quite many scientific (and some non-scientific) applications that make use of CUDA/OpenCL, a great number of them used on Linux. Also there are already a pretty large number of Linux clusters with GPUs and the majority runs Linux!
