you can't say nVidia doesn't know how to write effective drivers ! :-|
That's one area that ATI has traditionally been weak in, although that's changing.
I wonder if ATI will attempt to sue.

How are you going to keep them down on the farm once they've seen Karl Hungus?
If I follow your line of thought, then murder isn't a big deal since it has been done since the beginning of the human existence?
I asked a geek "Do you have a girlfriend?". He responded with a very puzzled look. "A girlfriend?," he mused, "Who is the developer?". I chuckled and told him this was not an open source project. He then became slightly angry and told me "Are you trying to insult me? Only the best geeks use open source only!". I reassured him I was well aware of his integrity as a geek (white skin, clumsy, pants that are too short, lack of daily shower, etc), but a girlfriend is a female who to a male (most oftenly a male) has an intimate friendship. He gave me a very confused look. "I have never heard of such a thing.. this.. g-g-irlfriend?" He asked me, sounding very baffled. "I have heard of friends before, those pets other people have. But what is this thing you say.. Grill?". "Girl," I corrected. Then I asked him to sit down on a bench nearby so I could explain it too him, the poor, helpless thing. I told him that for human beings to reproduce, sexual intercourse must occur between a male and a female. "Perhaps you hear the trolls mention a thing called "pussy" on slashdot?". The geek burst into laughter, "Haha, you have been browsing at -1 lately, haven't you? You know that is just troll talk. Those silly trolls never have anything intelligent to say." My face turned serious. "My dear geek, are you not aware of the female population amongst you? Do you not stare in the street and want to hump a post when you pass by a hot, slim, gorgeous looking chick with a firm bust and well sculpted ass?". The geek immediately began to appear as if we was having a nervous breakdown. His glasses began to fog up and he took them off to wipe them with this linux embroidered shirt, "I think I know what you are talking about. Those things are icky. They have cooties. Get away from me!" I felt offended. "Nonsense, I pleaded! Pussy is a beautiful thing. A sacred thing." The geek would not listen and he began to cry. "STOP IT!! You are EVIL!!" He then skipped off. I walked back to my house quite sad. Why don't they listen to me I asked myself? When I got home my girlfriend opened the door. She was wearing short-shorts and a sports bra. She had been doing the thigh master for the past 30 minutes and was sweating. I could see her dark nipples underneath her slightly damp bra. Oh god I could fuck her to the moon and back. I could smell her horniness the second I took my shoes off. I chased her, both of us laughing, to our bedroom [THE FOLLOWING has been censored for the well-being of Geeks].... Six hours later, finally satisfied a little, I sat up and noticed that same Geek hiding in the trees. He had been watching us the entire time. I swear his penis had to have been the size of a fucking horse cock (not bad for a geek, i might add), and he appeared as if he had gone into a state of shock. I could see cum stains forming near the bulge of his pant zipper. I thought to myself. There is one geek, finally brought into the real world.
It's okay, you can say "crap" around here. No need to censor yourself with the *. You could probably even get away with "shit."
Anybody who doesn't already know that almost all fast food is fattening and unhealthy is a moron. McDonalds is high in cholesterol/fat/calories/plutonium/whatever. They do not lie about it. They just don't highly publicize it. But the information is there if you look.
I agree. The book I referenced, however, goes much, much deeper than that. It gives you political, ethical, environmental, economic and social reasons to avoid fast food. There are many reasons to stop eating fast food beyond how utterly unhealthy it is. Read it and you will see what I'm talking about. This book should be required reading IMHO.
my religion lies somewhere between buddhism and super monkey ball - pamphlet?
