I don't know about you guys but on the forums, I've seen some hilarious Google ads regarding ATI. Such as:

Fix ATI
Download a Free Scan & Repair ATI Problems!

Alright well, I wish it were that easy... Haha.

Truth About ATI
What you must know about ATI before getting started!

The truth? We already know the truth, and what am I getting started on? Oh wait.

ATI Official Website
Visit our Official Website or Call ATI today (phone number here)

First off, if I could call ATI right now, I would. I would tell them to fix the AGP bus issue for 8.42.

I don't know the importance of these ads within themselves, but as long as they pay the bills I guess we're all happy haha.

I will say the ads aren't matching up all that well with their target audience... the current text ad I see says:Missing Drivers? Need Updated Drivers? Find Driver Updates With DriverAgent. I clicked on it a while back because I was wondering if some company had released an actual product that runs on Linux and keeps your graphics drivers updated with the latest automatically. I knew the answer (which is no), but I had to check since this is, after all, a Linux/Solaris forum community.

It keeps this great community/web-site alive and at the same times gives you a good laugh. I am not complaining at all.

I can't say I have seen any of those Google ads, but some of those are pretty ridiculous. Honestly I wonder how many people actually click on those.thanks for sharing

Being the one form of online advertising I condone(...), I would appreciate greater relevance. But I suppose I can tell that to google, right? ....orrrr.....

Those ads can be very helpful. If it weren't for them, I don't know if I'd know about system76, emperorlinux, or zareason... (gmail user)

But you know, prices work well, too. Like I see this ad here that shows an ATi Radeon HD2600Pro for $86.
That's relevant. Now I know, right?

Animations can go die. I payed for this bandwidth.
...and if it ever becomes a bottleneck, I can be counted on to use it very stringently. CPU power too.
