Nvida was quick to do two price drops in 4 days, but their high end cards are still $550+ and what about CUDA?

He also noted that he made progress getting his hands on a Radeon 4800 card and noted that his CUDA Radeon library is “almost done.” Badit said that “there are some issues that need to be addressed, since adding Radeon support in CUDA isn’t a big deal - but it’s not enough! We also need to add CUDA support on AMD’s driver level and its being addressed as we speak.”


Well, there's your answer, CUDA will be supported under ATI cards down the line. Now, that AMD/ATI is finally on the positive side, I hope they'll revamp their quad cores to be more competitive with the Intel's even if it doesn't out perform the Intel's at least be on par.
