apk what you say about money is true
however if ati spent more money making a better product with better drivers that was comparable to nvidias offerings then they would sell more products. For instance if they had better drivers i would have ordered an ATI whatever instead of the gforce4 i just ordered. and others probably would have as well. So there is more money to pay for the better team and better drivers.

Got mine over the weekend.
 
 
 
 
while I hate not being able to play BF42....there are other perks.
 
 
1600x1200 w/ 6xAA and 16x AF in Quake 3 gives me a stead 150fps.
 
 
my GF4 TI-4600 didn't do that

Got mine today as well Ive only really got minor complaints at the moment but you can see it needs a driver update
 
And ive just been playing BF1942, in 1280x1024 with 4xFSAA and 16xAF
 
Just disable the shadows in the game and it 'should' be ok, and make sure your using the latest leaked drivers so you get text in the menus.
