    I'm currently running 12.4 with the Catalyst control center from 12.7 beta. Also running the 12.7 CAPs and it's running great.

    C'mon...given the fact we paid so much for these machines i belive we deserve at least some updated drivers...2010 drivers just aren't going to cut it. What about all the new games...new cap profiles ? Dell should really consider updating at least once a year.
