AMD has made available its ATI Catalyst 10.9 software suite, which you can download directly from AMD or access via your Steam account.
There are only a handful of performance improvements in the latest release, including double digit gains in Stalker: Call of Pripyat benchmark for HD 5700 and HD 5800 graphics cards owners, and single digit performance gains in The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena for HD 4800, HD 5700, and HD 5800 owners.
Some new profiles have been added and updated (Aliens Vs Predator, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, F1 2010, Kane & Lynch 2), as well as a handful of resolved issues for Windows 7, Vista, and XP.

WHEN WILL THEY HAVE PER APPLICATION GRAPHICS SETTINGS.
It can't be that hard, seriously.

Can anyone tell me how this works with Steam? I don't have ATI computers and would like to know how smoothly it works.

Updating from 10.8 to 10.9 on my computer using Steam worked. No hiccups or anything like that.

Does anyone know if this plays nicely with Intel chipset laptops with switchable graphics? I would assume not, but hey, I can hope.

Do the laptops have ATi graphics? If not, then it won't work at all. If it does, then it may work...

Yeah, it does. It's just that their standard driver packs specify not to use them on machines with switchable graphics, and I was wondering if this was any different.

It should be noted that there is also a 10.9 hotfix on the AMD driver site that fixed crashes and graphical corruption in Popcap games when hardware acceleration is turned on.
