From what I have seen this is a development they are working on that uses the existing GPU to accomplish what the PS3 uses its CPU to achieve MLAA. No new hardware needed. It helps to improve textures and edges of objects when playing a game so they look more lifelike. I dont think the differences of having MLAA verses not make a huge difference, but at least a slight difference in quality. Essentially just slighly better looking images. The guys working on it for the Xbox 360 say they are going to be able to accomplish this advancment at 2.47ms speeds rather than the 3 to 4ms speeds that the PS3 has. So essentially it will run at slightly faster speeds. However I don't think the difference in 1 ms will make all that much difference to the human eye when looking at the graphical textures in a game.
