Still Waiting For Rage 128 Win2k Final Drivers!

Its funny how ATI ships final win2k (and ME) drivers with their new Radeon cards but hasn't released a new Rage 128 beta since May 29, 2000. I'm using an even older beta driver because the newer version is causing random lockups in Quake 3.

I was told by ATI that a final driver is not expected until the end of October because of the MS Driver certification program.
 
Am I the only one who thinks that waiting 7 1/2 months for final drivers is TOO LONG.

Normal ATI business practices. They have to focus ALL of their business on the RADEON because that's the product that can make or break them. Alot of people who have used ATI before are waiting to see what ATI's next product will be and are totally ignoring the Radeon. I wouldn't expect much from them for their older cards.
