    Graphics chip underdog ATI Technologies


    Yeah right, and why exactly they're the underdog??? Cause NVidia had slightly larger part of the market for the last 3 months, cause NVidia's quote is a bit higher(at the moment), or cause they(ATI) were the first(and arguebly still are the only one) to provide a GPU with DX9 support???
