"3D Nature, a leader in photorealistic landscape visualization, together with a prominent group of 3D visualization developers and users, have taken the drastic step of publicly declaring ATI's Catalyst OpenGL display drivers as unsuitable for professional realtime visualization needs.
All past and current ATI Catalyst drivers for all ATI Radeon series display cards contain several critical bugs that render the hardware unusable in professional 3D visual simulation applications. ATI has been aware of the problems since 2005 but has not fixed the most critical issues, has not announced an ETA for fixing them, or even acknowledged them publicly in their Known Issues for current releases."
3D Nature afferma quindi che ATi, seppur a conoscenza dei problemi da diverso tempo, non ha ancora risolto molti bug critici. Al momento non conosciamo la posizione di ATi sulla vicenda.
