I know it's a bit off-topic, but how's the radeon 3d support these days. I seem to recall it being quite lackluster for quite a while, and then heard that ATI had gone the nvidia route with binary drivers. I currently have an NVidia card, but have been considering picking up one of the newer ATI Radeon cards. The big thing that's been holding me back is that right now I have pretty solid driver support with the NVidia card.
Anyway ... not trying to start a flame war, just looking for a bit of info. Thanks, Sean On Sun, 2003-03-30 at 13:29, Tom Wesley wrote: > On Sunday 30 March 2003 6:49 pm, Brett I.
