    Jim: in fairness, what software will use the full power of that better gfx cards?


    I've seen some pretty good 3D games so far (with current hardware) and if better graphics solutions are supported, only a portion of our base will have them initially. As developers are likely to code for the average machine your question is a good one.

    Like the X86 market, I imagine the main advantage might be in supporting higher playable resolutions or the implementation of anti-aliasing.
    And, of course, as more powerful video cards become more common, software with the kind of realism you usually only see on other systems could become a reality.
