Tip: 8600gts video card, get the new driver, better OpenGL
Altitude had been choppy on my desktop, which was odd because its a newish computer with a decent nvidia 8600gt card. I had dealt with it by turning off detail and such, which helped a little. I eventually realized I couldn't remember the last time I updated the driver, probably never since I bought it, sure enough the driver was from 11/2007. Downloaded the new geforce drivers (released in early June 2009)for the 8600gt (geforce "8" family driver) and now Altitude is smooth as silk.
