More on Dual TNTs

A couple of follow-ups on the story about the possibility of using dual TNTs in some systems. First, as a couple of readers have pointed out, referring to using two video cards in tandem shouldn't be called SLI mode, since SLI means "scan line interleave," where every other line is drawn by the other card (interleaved), and the discussions of the TNT implementation refer to the screen being drawn in two different halves (top and bottom) each handled by one card. A bit more on this has been written on the prospect of using a pair of TNTs in tandem since the original story, including a GrandMaster B update that's skeptical of the whole report, and, in contrast, an update to the Sharky Extreme message board by Kerry Philpott, a Metabyte employee, that makes this all sound like a foregone conclusion:

By the way, this technology is only a small part of what we are working on here at Metabyte. We are working our engineers overtime to get you guys the bomb in a graphics config.

Did you ever think that you would be able to play Quake2 on three monitors with every available slot filled with Wicked3D graphics cards? with eyeSCREAM? Thought not - I have... :) Anybody interested?? How many slots would you fill?? Would you use more than two?? Just curious. :)
