 Thanks for the link great info. I wouldn't be surprised if Open CL pushes CUDA out since it is across platforms and brands.


OpenCL will and in fact has already displaced all other forms of parallel execution APIs...


"Already displaced..." by something that doesn't yet exist?  Seems a little to early to call that.  IMHO, two reasons this won't ever get the traction it needs.  

1) Khronos - Bad track record for OpenGL release/refresh problems, now adding this?  Good luck.

2) Microsoft - DirectX 11 has GPGPU features too, so I doubt anybody will switch to a slower OpenGL/OpenCl implementation on Windows.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(
