After a long delay, ATI finally released their CrossFire technology, that allows to use, as well as NVidia's SLI, the cumulate power of two PCI Express video cards.

This technology seems to be reliable and functional, even it will request a specific motherboard with two PCI Express ports (and a compatible chipset) to exploit it.
It is to be hoped that Apple shall implement in their future top of the line MacIntel two PCI-Express slots.
This is all the more possible that Intel is reportedly preparing a chipset that will be able to use both NVidia's SLI and ATI's CrossFire.
Beside the gaming aspect, coupling two high end video cards would deliver Core Image a tremendous power : a good way to seduce video professionnals.
