Bad Prediction! by: Anonymous on 10/1/2009
Q3 2009 come and gone, no launch from nVidia.
RE: Virtualization by: Theo Valich on 6/20/2009
While it is a good theory, personally I doubt that anyone would go and develop virtualization software for the GPU. It is just too much effort and frankly, it isn't needed.

What's more realistic is that we are going to see something like Tegra being implemented on the Tesla cards, and Quadros in visualization specs, and autonomous multi-card syncing. That is single biggest danger to new companies such as LucidLogix.

At the end of the day, "history is the teacher of the future". We'll see what happens with Intel, AMD and nVidia, but one thing is certain - things aren't going to become boring anytime soon.

A 2x2 configuration ("g395" x2) should do wonders in terms of computing. The only thing needed will be a huge PSU, or maybe better two of them (less noise).
What won't be needed is an Intel CPU; a nice virtualization interface programm and the outdated x86 will finally retire from top personal computers.

It seems however that Intel, aware of the danger, intends to make this transition as difficult as possible.
The old socket 775 Core2Duo processors were flexible; you could have them in any Crossfire or SLI configuration.
The new i5 debacle with PCI-e controllers on the chip, enabling only one X16 line, and the legal suit against Nvidia (hindering their new motherboards)rises questions of the role Intel has today.
The surprising throwing out of the i7 920 and 950 with the consequent practical inability of using the flexible X58 platform has only one role, to force the customer to the Intel game.
Somehow I have the feeling that Intel plans a really special project with their Larabee. Are they going to market it as "gaming" processor, needed to take full advantage of the ingeneering prowess of Nvidia and ATI(Radeon 6000)?

It is to admit, that Nvidia's attitude with their SLI is going to fire back on them. Nvidia undoubtedly got what it deserves. They played the monopolist Intel game and forgot, that they are not Intel, even if they feel that they are indispensable for an Intel PC.
Nvidia needs to learn a little humility towards their customers if it wants to prosper.
