Rather interesting wee article. If Vista promises to be more game friendly and plug n play becomes a reality for PCs then it may be possible that things could change.
However, as was disscused in this thread:

Regarding the likes of SLI and XFire (ATi's dual card system).
Things may indeed only get worse due to the mounting costs of PC gaming and the "good enough" level consoles are now reaching.
Most people are unwilling to pay such a heafty price for a PC that only sees RTS and FPS games.
Even popular PC games such as the Rainbow Six series have migrated to consoles due to better sales leaving the PC with fewer and fewer titles to call its own.
Vista will indeed need to be something really special and companies like NVidia and ATi need to stop ripping PC gamers off.
