Interface transitions are nothing new mate...you're A+ so you should know that already...slicing off AGP really only serves to benefit everyone because they now no longer have to engineer two different chipsets and they no longer need to bridge cards
I am going to say this until it gets through to everyone...SLI is what you make of it...if you support it, they're going to keep pushing it...if you simply ignore it and stop buying into it they're not going to force it as hard and will most likely rethink their roadmaps...basically, if you don't like SLI don't buy a second card and don't even bother buying an SLI chipset
