If you follow the new, highend laptop market, you'd notice that 
70-80% use a video chip made by Neomagic.  It turns out that 
XFree86 does not haver drivers for the card because the co. 
requires a non-discloser.  So you need to go to a commercial 
Xserver co, like Xi.  Xi provides servers for Neomagic cards
for Linux, FreeBSD, and BSDI.  But they do not support a 
NetBSD server.  Has anyone tried to convince them that they 
should?

Not being able to find important software for NetBSD, creates
a bad precedence.
