A patent application that was published yesterday reveals a new mobile phone interface by Microsoft that looks uncannily like the iPhone. The patent, filed in July 2007, is called "Extensible filtered lists for mobile device user interface" and talks about how mobile phones are so complicated to use because they are chock-full of features. This problem, the patent application says, is "exacerbated by the generally limited user interfaces".

Im old school... when i hear the term SLI, I immediately think of 3dfx. I still have a pair of 12mb Monster V2's in an old rig. I never tried out the more modern take on SLI or Crossfire for that matter.
I mean, it was mostly for bragging rights. It was a very temperamental tech that improved with newer iterations, for sure. But folks like myself, who have used it, probably recall that troubleshooting was an integral part of the experience and the value that you got out of the setup was really low.
However, none of that mattered because it looked sick as hell on a well-built PC.
I remember doing my research at the time 😂 I got 2 GTX 460's, as they in SLI were meant to be better than the 480 at the time. Not all games were optimised at the time, which meant some games meant setting them up for 1 card alone. Never forget the time I came home from night shift, turned on my computer like normal, went and made a cuppa, come back and it was still off. Tried to turn on again, and one of the 460's caught fire... good times.
typical microsoft. apple's going to sue someone
lol and microsoft will end up making more money
M$ has no original ideas and has to copy from what is winning and sell it cheaper but itll break just by turning it on
It'll just RRoD on everyone. Most Americans will gobble it up though. They seem to like shoddy products that require constant fixing and replacement.
don't forget to turn on the automatic updates, otherwise it won't work :D
