Heh... I wonder if AMD's listening... I think it's cool that The Inqwell mentioned Phoronix- but it's a might bit embarrassing for AMD, especially in light of the fact that we've been telling them this for a while now.

I think what would be fantastic would be if Phoronix went above and beyond (tho I'm not sure if they have access to the hardware needed to do this) and added benchmark results for the GeForce 7600 as well.
It would really drive the point home if Nvidia's midrange card performed better than Ati's flagship in OpenGL.

the only reasonable solution i see right now
ati is said to be to releasing rewritten opengl core in their drivers soon.
it is planned to come to linux as well - so the developers are not going to mess around with the current codebase apart from usual bugfixing.
that's the way i see it now - we cannot expect new features nor performance gains in fglrx until that new opengl core hits fglrx.
