Just installed 182.47 yesterday. Haiz. And if that's not enough there's leak 185.63 too which includes an ambient occlusion tab in the control panel like the GeForce 185.20 but unlike its predecessor, the options available are just Off and On, no Low, Medium, High. I would rather they concentrate on quality rather them quantity.

I've also checked for differences.
182.50 follows 182.46, i recommend it for gamers.
182.47 was a quickie for GDC'09 with (borked) OpenGL 3.1 update, yet "old" OpenGL apps are a bit faster than with the other drivers.
