>>What is Nvidia going to do? Layoff all their engineers? Sorry, but our GPUs are fast enough now, we don’t need you.

It won't be the first time. Ask any NASA engineer who'd been part of the Apollo program. "Congratulations! We got to the moon! Woo-hoo! Here's your pink slip as your position is now redundant."

That said, faster graphics cards are a bonanza for us non-gamers who are making use of the parallel processing in apps that produce things like graphics, photos, and videos. So thanks, gamer-people!
