This smellls of rat. Maybe Nvidia are scared of having more competition – I mean if they can make PhysX cards with some success, why not move to graphics cards? Maybe they’re making a preemptive move – either shut them down or absorb them. I don’t like being so cynical, but so often it’s proven correct, even if I’m not SPECIFICALLY right – plus I just hate the idea of these gigantic monopolies absorbing everything – *cough* Microsoft *cough*.
