NVIDIA GT200 now known as GeForce GTX 280/260?

[RaZz!]

I don't see why people think that this is so confusing to the normal consumer, if you look at the back of the box in most cases, it has the series of cards listed and how "better" they are in order, and if you really think about it. Comparing old series to new series cards. There really isn't any other way to do it. What Nvidia has picked is the less confusing possible for the market I think. Maybe we should have a brainstorm Geforce naming scheme thread.

how many people have the opportunity to look at the retail box before they buy the product?
personally, i didn't have any retail boxes in my hands before buying for over 5 years...

I mean S comes before T so obviously the GS is slower than the GT and GTX is obviously faster than GT and GTS is obviously between GT and GTX because of the Combining of the S and T.

obvious? sry, but it's not obvious at all... S comes before T? so why didn't they choose a GeForce A1, A2 etc.. and GeForce B1, B2 etc... - THAT would be obvious, but not GT, GS, GTX and GTS.
if you'd have absolutely no clue about nvidia's naming scheme it's everything but obvious what GT, GS, GTS and GTX mean...
