Maybe the finally snapped... ;)

u know future crew? they're dead...
sad... the gpus they planed back then looked really nice on paper...
so many dead people... that they could gather around a river, to populate a new world, and i could write about it and be a famous farmer \o/
nystep: i don't take that corporate flamewar too seriously, fortunately, but like bigcheese i find the underlying technical evolution quite fascinating.
i bet on a merger between intel and nvidia, i guess intel will buy nvidia in 2009 or 2010 :>

But they are still my bestest friends!I'm starting to get worried for nvidia. See, investing in the demoscene, making events such as nvision, weird statements in the media.. acting strange. Lack of presence in the cheapo integrated gfx market..
nvidia is dead until they start making general purpose CPUs (unlikely..) or are bought by Intel :)
I for one am looking forward to a new oldschool-alike "software" rendering future :)

* dead until 2012. SPU's are teh way to go..
Simply call Captain Obvious to the rescue:
- Nvidia, GPU company, says that CPU rendering is dead
- Intel, CPU company, says that GPU rendering is dead
So they only want to continue selling their products.

So GPUs and CPUs are both dead? What's that leave? Physics processors?
So who/what will render my audio from now on? :-/
Paralel is the new faster.
My CPU and my GPU are still alive. Something must be wrong with this thread's hypothesis.
THE NUCLEAR WINTER IS COMING AND YOU'LL BE ALL DEAD!
The copper and blitter are all you need.
copper is quite expensive nowadays.
Nah, everybody go home now. future is configware
The future? AMIGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
Yeah, but that is only for one specific application type, for 99% of the other tasks supercomputers are used it craps all over that GPU system.
quoting a comment from that page
AMIGAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
lol

Am I the only one seeing those alternative uses of GPUs as some kind of re-birth of the Amiga design?

Amiga truly was ahead of its time ...
Does that sentence makes any sense?
I can't see what amiga has to do with a few GPUs working in parallel. Please enlighten me.
