In the near term, perhap AMD/ATI legal could start by reviewing Dave Airlie's R5xx 2D modifications to the radeon driver and allowing him to release it. If they don't take that minimal step, I certainly won't be buying a Turion X2 any time soon. Next question is whether one can get a Core2 Duo laptop with Intel graphics.
