    Yeah!

    While they are not going backwards for Windows XP and Windows Vista, ATI/AMD is finally releasing notebook drivers to the general public so we don't have to rely on Notebook OEMs anymore.

    Long time coming

    That sucks. Nvidia has directly provided XP/Vista/7 notebook drivers for a long time now.

    Nonetheless, it's a step in the right direction, even though more steps would certainly be very desirable.

    I installed these (x64 win7 and Radeon HD 3000 series), and it says they're version 9.9 in the download and on the page. But after installation, when I go to info in the control center, it says it's catalyst version 9.7. It this right or am I misinterpreting something?
