Oh..and add Microsoft to the list of people who are now steadfastly
agaisnt Nvidia. 

They chose ATI for their new console, and they backed Valve's statements
and benchmarking results.

First...the FX is dx9 compliant. Secondly, it could be argued that the
FX's 32/12/16 precision offers superior quality than ATI's 24 bit
precision. MS may step in with a precision definition for dx10...who
knows. It will be interesting to see if they will go with 24 or 32 bit.
My money would be on 32 bit if they do step in.

Developers have known about this for a long time...and the ways to
optimize for each path are, according to the things I've read, pretty
straightforward and obvious. This all kind of reminds me of the Gravis
UltraSound. It had more memory and processing power...but it still lost
out to the Soundblaster in the long run.

I think Kevin's analogy works...but even if I was working on amazon.com,
I'm not going to hold a press conference on why the site looks better in
one browser than another, unless there was an ulterior motive.
