Wink I used to have...
I used to have an ATI Radeon 7500 and I was happy with it. I used to use the "radeon" driver provided with X, with no problems at all and a more than acceptable performance.

I lost that card, however Yes, it was because of a woman.

Now I use the video chip that came shipped with my PC. An Intel 865. I kinda miss my Radeon sometimes (but not too often). Most games do work the same. Some others don't.

I think I'll buy a GeForce soon.

I've an ATi IGP 340m on my laptop and an ATi Rage 128 Pro. Next time I'm buying a pc/laptop it won't have an ATi card in it, will give Nvidia a go.
