Janes F-18 - can this be true?

Has the time to rejoice arrived for people who still have Janes F-18 and ATI
Radeon cards? I just tested Janes F-18 with the new Catalyst 4.4 drivers and
I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that the water had waves and
reflections again! Unfortunately the ocean tiles still remained, but I
didn't see any words being scrolled inside them. I actually saw the sun's
reflection in the ocean for the first time in years! It's a miracle!

Ahh, the Karlskya(sp?) campaign. Remember that one?

Damn, I just realized that Omega doesn't make the drivers for the 9X
platforms any more. Nathan, how's F18 run for you on XP Pro?
