Does Nvidia plan on getting chips fabbed by GloFlo? if so, when. Also as an Nvidia fan (and user) and an enthusiast I have been disappointed to see Nvidia decide to decieve the unknowledgable with re-badge schemes and raise expectations to unachievable levels with boistrous (open a can of whoop-ass) statements. This seems really short sighted given that it is the enthusiasts who are the opinion leaders and their sentiment carries over time to the masses in a significant market shifting way. This momentum shift can be difficult to reverse as I'm sure you know. Does Nvidia plan to continue with this myopic marketing modus operandi?
I'll be surprised if this question is really answered but I'd really like to hear a commitment from Nvidia that they will try to be more transparent in the future. If I get a BS marketing answer like "Nvidia denies ever being anything but perfect, having a new PCB made the GTS250 as different from 9800gtx+ as the names imply" then I will take it as confirmation that Nvidia will continue to sacrifice future mind-share for short term gains and will be a poor investment. Here's an example of a BS marketing answer that is sure to piss off enthusiasts "AMD does not support PhysX for their customers, and we don?t QA this configuration. With no QA, it is risky to run this configuration so we removed this capability in a recent driver release." BS, just publish that it is not supported, forcing it off is just myopic, people will figure out how to make it work anyway and then you will have not only failed to force people to buy your products on technicalities instead of merit, but will have earned enemies as well.
Well would you look at that, it got cloudy while I was typing
