3dfx
In the end

Gobbled up by Nvidia
Nvidia was one of the "babies" born out of the GPU generation
You are talking not just about Ageia specifically, but the concept and idea of a tertiary PPU
Whether it be in the form of Ageia... or Ageia bought up by Nvidia
Or ATI
did you see that documentary?

I haven't yet
I have the link bookmarked
Need more time first

Time? you need about 1 hour Smile

For the PPU though I'd prefer ATI or nVidia

To be exact 1 hour 13 minutes
They wouldn't have the same know-how that Meqon/Ageia has though..
The problem is that the PPU requires cooling
Both chips under one fan?
I would hope one of them just bought Ageia and assimilated it into a GPU :p
If they'd try it alone, without their experience, I know they'd just do it halfassed

Wait and see

Or they could try to amass industrial experience from scratch (or do industrial espionage on ageia)

ATI is showing off their capabilities at Computex
They are using Havok

Nothing beats Meqon
Those are just halfassed crossfire/sli solutions
Am I right?
Or is it a GPU doing both graphics and physics?
Because I've read that is gonna be more possible with Dx10

I wouldn't call it half-assed yet

Ati and nvidia will have the ability to run both physics and graphics on 1 gpu , or dedicate 1 gpu for physics specificly if in SLI
