Nvidia Says Tegra and Apple are the Future

He's congradulating Apple for using the integrated 9400M nvidia chipset instead of the crappy intel stuff. The 9400M is around the performance of a ati X1600. When does he say apple is the way of the future?
 
I believe we'll see an AMD powered Iphone before tegra....Just makes more sense. (they got the chip, chipset and gfx)

Also with OPENCL being an open standard does it really matter? Nvidia and AMD/ATI will be supporting it.

Great. After years of working hard to forget the blatant failure the Nokia N-Gage was, other companies just keep on trying to pry the concept out of the icy grips of death and improve upon it. Is this really necessary? I know MOST iPhone/Mac users aren't gamers, and will probably only end up watching their overpriced TV episodes and movies from iTunes on them, so seriously, what is Nvidia thinking they can do by supporting Apple like this?

If that is so, hopefully they'll add an HDMI 1.4 port. That would be cool. I would own an iphone then.

that won't happen since apple has a device that does media output to tv. i don't remember the name but it's prolly something like iSuck...
 
This guy makes me want to switch to AMD GPUs. I just can't stand it anytime this guy opens his mouth.
 
as well as laptops based on Nvidia’s Ion processor

Might want to fix that...

does anybody think there's even a small chance the next iteration of the iPhone could be based on the Tegra chipset?

I think it's more ironic that the Zune already has it. Apple may include it, and if they do, they'll play it up as if it makes them so innovative.

Unless it has a 960x540 screen, I don't really care.
 
[citation][nom]Gin Fushicho[/nom]That sounded VERY , very wrong.[/citation]
Perhaps we will se an iGasm soon. :)
But seriously, anyone who instantly notices something like that in the sentence must watch too much porn.
 
opencl was developed by apple . maybe that's why nvidia thinks apple is leading the way . apple always does
 
whoa well seriously somebody must have drunk 4 pints of beer before reaching this mental condition
 
Hopefully we will be able to use things like photoshop CS9?? or the Gimp 2.x which will do all the heavy work with OpenCL on the GPU.
This could make a decent performance possible.

And this could also open the door to casual games that don't suck.
If apple could make iPhone run Mac applications (within the hardware limits) like this, they really on to something.

The same power as an X1600?
I could run a lot of casual games like Sam & Max or even Unreal Tournament on a new iPhone. (With the iPhone OS replaced by a Linux variant with wine and good, optimized drivers.)
This would make games mobile, instead of cooking up some half-baked, half-burnt crisps of mobile games.
The mobile games concept should definitely die!!
The mobile hardware should be strong enough to play casual, PC/Mac games. Only then you have a good experience, now throw in a HDMI-port and two mini-usb for a mouse and keyboard and we have ourselves a decent platform to do simple, not goo heavy games on!!!
