Thats absolutely true...

The aforementioned Dell E1705 laptop that I (and Chris) have has a decent ATI videocard in it, but ATI does not update the drivers for it, this is Dell's responsibility, and they dont update these drivers as new lines of laptops come out. I actually had to stepback my drivers on the laptop to make POTCO work correctly. Drives me nuts when any problem I report.. im told to update my video drivers (they dont get any more up to date).
