I want nothing to do with a .NET control panel interface. If it all goes
..NET, I stop there. If ATI stops providing an alternative (original control
panel still works fine...but when it no longer does...), I stop updating
drivers, and start selling and recommending more Nvidia hardware. Microsoft
even knows it's bloated. At first they tried to forbid developers from
publishing comparative benchmarks using .NET as an API. Then I did some
snooping and found that it grants M$ root auditing privileges...I'm for
using the mindshare resources for improving OpenGL and Linux support, which
is nothing compared to Nvidia, regardless of how much I like ATI hardware.

The only thing I've found it to be useful for is improving color saturation
in certain games and DVDs on the fly, other than this, maybe someone could
set up their monitor display with more "warmth"...
