Again, they are talking about TWO high-TDP cards: what on earth can that say that is "funny"? I guess if you were an ATI-fanboy you might think it's funny because it takes a lot of power, I guess?
I don't find it "funny" per say, but you must admit it's a little bit ridiculous how much power fermi presumably takes.
