Julian Knott left a note on my windscreen which said:

Perosnally I have no idea how stable they are but although I'm keen to
get them on my system I'll wait for the official release.

Been running them for several days without a single problem - unlike the
4.4s that I had to use for Thief DS previously - those had a tendency to
freeze my system up randomly.

Cheers, think I'll grab em.

I tried the new Catalyst drivers and my framerate in Thief
visibly dropped: almost to a slideslow. After reverting to my
previous drivers, everything was fine again. So I'd be wary
of them.
