I like it since I bet there was some bickering going on behind the scenes.

No bickering... If it's truth then the companies are fine with it. If it's a lie then companies get upset.

Kyle has a ton of valid points made there, but the one point not mentioned in his review is the number of cards released... I can't say the number, but there are hardly any Radeon HD 7970 reference cards out there. The drivers that came out Friday fix most the issues. I can write articles about CrossFire and all the issues I had with the 4 drivers they gave me last week, but I don't see a point in all honesty. If thousands of people had them in the US then that is one thing, but when the number is in the hundreds and a fix is in the works then I see it as being minor. It's always an issue for early adopters. As you know drama gets traffic and here we are talking about it.
