catalyst 9.6 is out

And now, guess *why* those are your largest customers Because it sucks for the rest.

They're the largest customers because they pay an awful lot of money. That's business. That the fglrx drivers (and let's all remember why it's called "fglrx" - firegl is the workstation series, not the home user graphics cards) have improved considerably in recent years shows that home user linux is a growing customer base. Let's add the open source push - if the open source drivers aren't as good as everybody wants them, you can not blame AMD for that one. Give it a break already.

I can blame them and I will. Because there's always NVidia to compare too. I will stop when Catalyst becomes usable, or when AMD starts saying "don't buy our cards if you have Linux."

If neither of those things happen, I will continue to spread the word: AMD cards on Linux suck.
