Trick or Treat?

[John B]

Will ATI:

TRICK (for W2k support for TV-Wonder) by the end of the month

or

TREAT (make the MMC 7.1 available)?

Website says: "Beta available in October"

If not, forget about ATI... they suck.
Buy your video/TV cards from other companies...

If ATI don't have w2k support for their products, why would anyone buy consider buying?

I fear ATI will be like the house down the street where the Born-Agains live, where the lights will be turned off and no explanation given (though everyone knows why they're not giving candy) :-(

In terms of alternatives, I have both the TV Wonder and an Hauppauge WinTV FM/dbx stereo and it works solidly in Windows 2000 (and has worked since Christmas).

With new multimedia cards being released that support Windows 2000 by other manufacturers (or soon to support them, such as in 3dfx's case) I suspect that they are stonewalling TV Wonder drivers to leverage users to switch to the AIW Radeon, which comes with Windows 2000 support.

Maybe they would get the message if their windows were soaped :-)
