    It is limited, the programmer is left with the burden of optimizing for each specific architecture, the compiler doesn't do much of that work
    oh i am sorry that the programmers have to do their fvcking jobs and not rely on a preprogrammed set of tools to do it for them.

    get real, that comment is LAZY, and reflects the mentallity of LAZY programmers. P E R I O D.

    CUDA is C,,, what the hell,, i suppose you'd rather have it in some retarded unix language, or bsd or wtf ever... cuda requires skill. something far far FAR too many programers DONT have. so they graduated some programming classes,,, yeah, that means a whole lot.

    all this complaining about cuda, but i bet when you fold with your video card you aint friggin complaining as your pointless points climb to such a degree it would have taken years with a cpu to get that high.

    sorry for the "in your face" comments, but you all know me,, i refuse to hold back, and that comment was pure bullsh/t.
    no one said cuda was going to be simple, and NO ONE and i mean NO ONE outside of the intel dungeons know ANYTHING about this larabee stuff, its all a dream,, numbers on paper that dont mean jack squat until a material platform comes about.

    and CUDA was designed to take advantage of current and future hardwares without the NEED to upgrade,, i dont think i have seen anything even remotely close to that from intel, its all an entire platform change.

    i am not saying larabee isnt going to smoke CUDA or if its going to be a joke,, all i am saying is specualting on a platform thats nothing but paper right now is rediculous.

    nvidia was the first to do what is being done, and just as their video card market is, they wont let someone else be top dog, not for long, so if someone does come out with a new programming tool or device (larabee) then i am quite confident nvidia will fight back with something better.
