I get about 200 here on average :/

I am not sure how to test opengl vs non. I did test quake3 though. With 
all the settings to max at 1024 x 768 I get about 30 FPS. On Linux I can 
not even max the settings thus I was not able to compare. I wonder how 
much longer ATI/XFree or whomever makes the linux drivers will hold out 
on this chipset. I know the M6 has been around for more than 1.5 years now.
