Too bad its not playable at that res for me. Perhaps if I lowered the game settings.. but Im not so sure I would rather have AA, than good textures.
Is AA borked in the demo? Are you sure AA is on because that pic has tons of jaggies.

I dont know about borked, but you cant force it with thru the CP, at least not for ATi cards. Is has to be set for App Preference in the CP, then applied within the game.
AA does work in the game though. Here is a shot from about the same place. You can see the power lines, gun, crane, trees, buildings, in general everything looks better. You can see the AF workin, on the road easily. For me, AF also takes a huge FPS hit, more so than any other game.
Here are some 1600x1200 shots I took, where you can really see the AA difference. And some people say they cant tell AA is on with 1600x1200..
No AA 1
4xAA 1
I can EASILY see the difference.. primarily in the crane. It looks horrible without AA to me. The gun in front looks much better to, as well as the trees. Not in the shot, but power lines look a ton better with AA. I dont like the broken images they have, with no AA.
No AA 2
4xAA 2
More of the same. Looks so much better to me with AA, than with not. Even at a high res such as 1600x1200. I really cant imagine playing with no AA at 1024x768. Would look aweful.
Yes Im anal about jaggies, but I just really dont like them. To most people it probably looks fine with no AA.
I find this bogus. I have "application preference" in my ATI settings, yet I cannot set any AA in the game. The only option for AA is "OFF". I have an X800XT PE, A64 3700+ and 1GB of RAM. I think I'm running 5.1 catalyst drivers. If it really works as you say, could the older drivers be the issue? I'm on 5.1's because I've had no need to upgrade. When I went to 5.3, I got constant lockups in games, so i went back to 5.1's with no issues.

I dont care what you find it. It works fine for me, as the screen shots show.

High for everything
2xAA(for singleplayer 0x for multi)/16xAF
3500+@2.55gig
2x512 Mushkin LvL2 PC3500
X850XT/PE
My frames are pretty good, around 50 most of the time. 32 player servers can drop them to high 30's, which is still pretty good. I would like some more horsepower to run AA all the time though, I hate jaggies. Looks like Ill be upgrading to a G70 or R520 this summer. I can run 1600x1200 with 4xAA with great frames, but I like WS better.

Add this to the end of your shortcut on your desktop;
"C:\Games\Battlefield 2 Demo\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1920 +szy 1200"
Of course change the res for whatever you want, and if your install path is different.

It seems incredibly smooth, I havent run it with fraps but it feels like Im rarely getting a dip below 50 fps. Im pretty impressed overall. There is some major lag that happens occassionaly and when you first start the level sometimes its very choppy for about 5-10 seconds but after that it rolls without a hitch.
