The sad part of that story is that we, the people that buy their things, bear the consequences of their quarrels.

The same is true in other branches of the computer industry, take Linux for example. I don't feel 100% comfortable with it because I miss certain functionality/programs that I do have in Windows. Linux isn't really to blame, but that's besides the point.

The same is true for Intel chipsets and SLI. Looking for someone to blame is here too besides the point. The only thing that matters is that it is or it isn't possible. And today SLI isn't possible on an Intel chipset. That makes ATI the WINNAR in the battle of multi-gpu setups for Intel cpu's. That is IF you consider Intel chipsets to be superior to nVidia chipsets. But my guess is that a lot of people second this opinion. It's been long since I want for the fastest thing out there. Now I want a stable and thrustworthy platform that won't let me down. nVidia failed me on that. Now it's time to move on. Yes I know, own experiences and emotions mixed together to form a "general conscensus", not a very great way to get one. But yeah.
