As always, there are differing opinions about graphics cards.
Always.
I went through the nVidia fiasco a few times trying to get their drivers to work with different cards without success.
No question, Nvidia drivers appear to have "seasons" (2004 was a "bad" year for drivers), but I admit bafflement at your claim of having no luck with Nvidia while having a stellar experience with ATI. Their drivers are the least stable and compatible drivers I've ever used. No question, they used to be literally *unusable*, even on Windows IMHO, and they've come a ways, but they still don't have the quality assurance that usually comes with NVidia's. I can't explain why you've had such a different experience from almost everyone I know, except really good luck. I'd never recommend an ATI card to someone working in a professional 3D environment.
