Seriously I love ATI's products, that being said I just ordered my 8800 gts because I got sick of waiting for the R600. While I know there are no dx10 games out yet, I wanted someting that could burn up dx9 and have some future proofing. My x1600xt was just no longer cutting it, so upgraded to what seems to be currently the only logical choice. It just burns my rear that ATI couldn't put something out sooner for those of that love their products.
 
To put it simply, I own 4 ATI cards, and 4 NVIDIA cards. Both of which I researched heavily before purchase and appreciated them all in their prime.

However, I tend to prefer ATI's hardware, and NVDIA's software (except I prefer ATIs video encoding/decoding but not its players). As such, I lean towards ATI in hope that the software will improve with time, as the hardware requires a new purchase, not a simple download.
