Hehe...I also have opinions about ATI Video cards...hehe. They've caused
more BSODs than anything else I've ever encountered...excepting perhaps

A desktop 256mb ram P3 1gig with a 32mb ATI Radeon is an adequate gaming
machine.

Put that all into a laptop and you're going to see a SERIOUS performance
degradation.
