ATI has released new drivers for its RETAIL video cards:

What is not immediately clear is that this update is for the retail 
cards only, not the OEM cards that come with your Mac (it took a bit of 
digging around on the various Mac fix-it sites to uncover this tidbit 
of info). ATI is getting more and more vague lately about which cards 
(retail versus oem) are covered by the updates. I suspect the latest 
round of uncertainty is because, well, yesterday in simultaneous 
bloodless coups, the staff at Crazy Apple Rumors ( 
http://www.crazyapplerumors.com/ ) took over the compound of As The 
Apple Turns ( http://www.appleturns.com/ ) while at the same time, the 
staff of As The Apple Turns took over the offices of Crazy Apple 
Rumors. Both sides have declared a victory of some sort. They then 
turned their attention to a takeover of Perversion Tracker - aka PvT ( 
http://perversiontracker.com/ ), but I suspect the logistics got in the 
way (the Van Tols hang out in Minnesota -- a bit of a long drive from 
the east coast). ATI would have a rough time if PvT started reviewing 
their driver updates.
