Is this anything significant or just an incremental monthly update with
a new version number to signify the new year?

It's fully there now.

Main bullet is - "Full OpenGLT 3.0 support"

I stand corrected, it does look potentially interesting.

Interestingly, the driver can handle the nVidia NV_conditional_render
extension.

What ever happened to the multithreading optimizations that were supposed to
improve Crysis Warhead performance by 8% on quad-core systems?

Hmmm... I wonder what the chances are of it now working with the old NVidia
Dawn demo using the ATI GL wrapper. I used to love that demo but it broke
somewhere around Cat 6.5 I think. Hasn't worked since.

NVidia always had the best Demos ... at least back then.

HA - remember the dawn.exe - 3dmark03.exe "easter egg" ?

Has anyone got past the stupid survey on the Avivo package download? I've
done it twice but no download.

I cannot get the AVIVO download to launch at all.

Both EXEs download fine. No idea if they run, though, since I got a GTX285
now...

Thx foo! I complained on rage3d.com forums, and a game.amd.com admin
acknowledged the link problem a couple days ago, but I notice it's still not
fixed.
