Something tells me he was talking about the offical driver.

Well if he was talking about the official ATi driver then how is it "one thing windows is better at"?
I dunno.

I'm still here, the only reason I haven't installed it yet is because my little brother has a big school project and he needs the computer. After he's done I'll get to it. I will keep you guys updated. Thanks for all of the advice.

Because the offical ATi Driver according to him works without problems on Windows and they only exist on Linux.
Of course the ATi drivers for Windows are piss poor as well, I have an ATi video card and I must say that upgrading drivers has caused trouble with my games, multimedia, and everything else -- every single time I have upgraded the drivers.
