Some positive news from this interview with ATi's Terry Makedon:
http://hardwarefanatics.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=6&page=2

"...you let the market decide what they want to use, as opposed to dictating
what they must use."

"We get about two million downloads of "Catalyst" per month (which includes
all the various components of it). Last time I checked, the CCC downloads
were about 40% of the total downloads (which includes many products that CCC
is not supported on). "

I guess this means ATi will continue to produce the CP version of the
drivers as long as it remains popular. :-)

The interview left out the last part of Makedon's comment:

"...unless they want custom screen resolutions, or another feature
found in CCC but not CP. In that case, we're only too happy to
shove dot net down the market's throat."

Interesting comment.
I just "discovered" CCC recently. It does what I asked it to do: allwow me
to control the h/w deinterlacing and quickly hotkey between 60/72/75Hz
framerates. I'm running MCE205 with VGA hookup to a large plasma TV.

The price I'm paying is a ton of uncomforting errors in their log
"ACEvents"? (.NET errors I think?)
