Although I plan on buying AMD hardware moving forward, It would be nice to see the Nouveau driver actually be useful.

Nvidia is not going to open source anything that could help AMD. Having a proper Nvidia kernel driver in mainline Linux probably won't help AMD, Nvidia open sourcing all their tricks would.

Everyone here is talking like there is a choice among high end laptops that is non-NVIDIA. I would love to get off the zombie NVIDIA train but there's no viable AMD replacement for me. So this is possibly good news for me and my metabox (clevo) laptop purchases.

It'll be cool if they let themselves become a viable competitor to AMD. For the time being, NVIDIA is just an annoyance faced by anyone in the market for a high end laptop. Unfortunately, the nicest AMD GPU laptops right now are macs, and they are riddled with all sorts of gotchas and undocumented nonstandard hardware, and might soon not even boot user-supplied operating systems of any sort.

Would be cool to see BSDs other than FreeBSD be well supported by a major graphics vendor. AMDGPU has landed in OpenBSD and NetBSD but lags behind current Linux support so recent model cards aren't supported. After doing research on NetBSD 9 it seems that even Intel integrated graphics are only supported through Kabby Lake. No Ice Lake support yet.
