3D Vision Surround naming?

Post by BHawthorne »

IMHO, the name gives it a bit of an identity crisis. Anyone else think it's a bad idea to confuse matters by mixing up 3D Vision with association with the Surround capability? Why aren't they just calling it SLI Mosaic mode?

How about 3D Immersion Mode? (Spelling?)

Descriptive, if unimaginative. ;)

Of course it is a bad name. But since when does that stop anyone?
