In the past I never bothered searching for a solution and just figured, "hey, lets try another driver."

A bug isn't always just a bug. Most of the time, a bug allows you to still use a product. But when a bug is so large that the product is defective right out of the box, kind of turns you off. Especially when that product costs $40+. And in the past, you didn't have the access to developers like you do today. The support we get today for this stuff is incredible. Yesterday however seemed to be a different story.

Having said that, without looking all over for patches, addendums or whatever, I've never had luck with CGX drivers on a real Amiga. Even using CGX hardware and using legitimate CGX software. Only time it's ever seemed to work is with MorphOS on something other than a Miggy.

P96 just works... usually on the first try. And when you've already invested stupid amounts of cash on a hobby such as this, P96 is more than just "good enough"  :)
