Fyodor: Re: <<That said, NVIDIA can stumble as well. They haven't really shown much innovation since the GeForce - that is, they haven't really addressed the primary problem: memory bandwidth.>> Yup, that's my understanding of the limitations at least of the GeForce MX - at higher resolutions and 32 bit color depth, you really begin to feel the bandwidth limitations of their 32 meg SDR. One can, of course, go with their 64 meg DDR card, but things get pricey fast, and it starts to feel goosey to pay more for your video card than it does for your processor and motherboard combined. However, the competition appears to be asleep, as they can't seem to step into the breach and get a handhold on whatever NVDA's vulnerabilities may be. Let's hope there isn't a parallel here between INTC and AMD ;-) in the processor sector.
