Hi Jerry,

This is the most recent review I've seen that mentions the driver problems: bangkokcom.hypermart.net

On the bright side, the SGRAM version, if you use the new drivers, sounds like a solid product. On hind sight, it's not too hard to figure out why revenue from Savage has been so bad for the last two quarters and the lack of OEM wins. It also might explain why Terry Holdt found himself out of a job. It strikes me as a fantastically poor tactical decision to release Savage so far ahead of being a finished product. It will make gaining mind share a lot harder than it would have been with a clean release. It probably also stampeded competition into getting next generation products to market faster than they might have done otherwise.

Regards,

Don
