According to that link, the problem is with 4.7. Are you saying that this
problem still exists with 4.8?

There is no 4.8 I believe...I do see a decrease in 4.7 though...happy to
know where its from, I'll just wait for 4.9 to come out (I also believe they
are skipping 4.8 for some reason since there is a beta of 4.9 out to help
Doom 3.

Sorry, the quote chopped off the beginning of the snip, which explained that
it's a squib from ATI in re the 4.8 Cats (thank YOU, Schooner), that
unaccountably refers back to the 4.7s.  I'm guessing ATI hasn't fixed the
prob since then.
