Now listen here. Do you go to Dell and buy a brand new computer for 2000 dollars, with an nVidia Geforce 8800 graphics card, only to find out that the graphics card has no drivers, nor are there any available, making that 400 dollar card useless? I don't think so. Nor do you buy a v8 car and find out it only runs on 4 cylinders, coz they manufacturer forgot to put SPARKPLUGS in the other four! Too broad? Okay, you don't buy JBWeld (or any other Epoxy) and be satisfied with it when it didn't include the ACTIVATOR compound! You'd be pissed and you know it. Call it bitching if you want, but I think its you who should be proclaimed lead bitcher. Pot calls kettle black, eh?

The sad and irritating truth is that if the drivers were there to enable the ATI Imageon hardware (including Direct3dM and DDraw) this would actually REDUCE power consumption, as the main processor wouldn't have to handle nearly as much Software Rendering, both 3D and 2D.
