    GPU question

    Does anyone know if the software issue present in Snow Leopard causing performance issues with ATI graphics cards has been resolved in Lion or Mountain Lion? Any info here would be very helpful! Thanks

    NOPE!

    However, there is a rumor that new Mac Pros and new iMacs might have ATI GPUs in them and an update in a beta of ML points to a change in OpenGL rendering frameworks

    above should read nVidia GPUs

    Did you mean Nvidia GPU? I have heard rumors of Nvidia returning and changes to make it easier to implement a more current version of opengl. Let hope so. And to be clear Lion has not fixed the issue with ATI... my testing would support this.. Performance is very disappointing.
