I've just ordered a GTX275 because CUDA seems so much less painful
than ATI's GPGPU solution, but I'm obviously not the intended market;
and it was a 275, and would have been a 5850, because I'm buying by
price-per-ALU.

Though I doubt I'll actually program the 275 any more than I did the
GeForce Ti4400 that I bought thinking it was for the same purpose; at
least the interface by which I won't get round to programming it is
somewhat more convenient.

Unless you have CUDA applications that you need right now there is not
much sense to go for CUDA as it's future doesn't look really bright,
considering that OpenCL is at the door and the way for the GPGPU future.
