David, I can understand your frustration in this matter, as for my part, I 
currently have the ability to test the latest software on a Dell Studio 17 
with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 in 64 & 32 bit mode. If there is a need 
for more varied (hardware) testing I am willing to invest in a separate 
Computer with assorted Video cards. I am always up for suggestions to make 
the process better and beneficial for everyone.
