+	  <title>Official support for NVIDIA graphics cards on amd64
+	    architecture</title>
+
+	  <p>The NVIDIA Corporation releases an initial BETA version of
+	    NVIDIA 195.22 &os; graphics drivers for both i386 and amd64
+	    architectures.  The drivers support recent versions of the
+	    &os; operating system, i.e. 7.2-STABLE and 8.0-RELEASE and
+	    provide support for features like SLI, improved
+	    compatibility and performance, especially on systems with
+	    4GB or more of RAM.  This marks the first driver release for
+	    amd64, as it was previously available only for i386
+	    architecture.  Please see the original <a
+	      href="http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=142120">announcement</a>
+	    for more information.</p>
