They are starting to feel the heat, I imagine. What they need to do is work out the driver problems instead of commenting that the "application vendor" needs to correct some issues. lol

One of my main contentions against Vista right now besides program compatibility is nVidia drivers. Since HP(consumer) is only offering nVidia dedicated solutions, I'm obliged to stay on XP where the drivers function as they should (gamewise). It would be disheartening to buy a new Vista lappy with more powerful graphics and have it perform less than it should be, IMO. If I wanted to drop 15fps in Most Wanted, I could just stay on my X200M. :tongue:

As for my burning question, why does ATI support their mobile gpus and nVidia does not?

 

They really need to release better drivers for their GeForce Go series ... there's alot of angry laptop users who could potentially switch to using ATI instead of nVidia.
I'm sure they'll release something soon. The question is how soon...

 

So we are never going to see any support from Nvidia for our Go series now under Vista? That's nice. Yeah, HP might be providing some for me, but I'm sure they aren't the real deal.

 

Current Vista to be scrapped, New "Vista" OS to be released in 2009 (two years)
