Maybe they don't feel inclined to spend on making that overhaul, perhaps that's why they saw it as a show stopper for them.
This was reported on "This Week In Tech" going back to maybe August or September last year. I could be wrong about the date, but that's about when I feel it was mantioned.
Bottom line was, that it worked (as in it will run), but it's not what the industry itself was expecting or hoping for in terms of performance & reliability.
Anyhoo, "dual" anything is generally a sign that things are not as fast/big/cheap as was hoped, and that more development time is needed for a truly acceptable replacement for what ever the "dualled" item was. Be that CPU, GPU, whatever. Even dual monitors is largely a sign that widescreen did not happen fast enough or cheap enough in most cases where it's used. Oh there's always exceptions, but mostly they are not the case, of course.
My plan is presently to wait until such time as it's clearly, obviously & demonstrably good enough while being affordable. I suppose "worthwhile" would be a good word here!
