Ati drivers are pretty good. The main problem for me is that they are only really released once/month, so if you have a problem you will probably have to wait at least until the next months driver, and if that doesn't fix it then it can be a real pain. But they do often have a lot of nice performance improvements, which is always good.

It's too bad nvidia didn't spend us much time and money on the GTX2 series as they did on the 8 series. Yeah... which is why I said january '07 at the very least

Why does AMD need to answer? The 4850 can beat the 260 in several situations, namely from ones in which Nvidia didn't pay the developer. For the ones in which Nvidia did fork over money to nerf the game under the guise of TWIMTBP, ATI is screwed anyway.
