Why even mention ancient 3Dfx and ATI cards? Do you really think there are many people who still use these cards today? I also doubt that there are many Fermi SLI-combinations still active nowadays. It makes much more sense to replace the 2 old cards with 1 newer card, which is even faster than the old setup, doesn't have to rely on SLI/CF profiles, supports new features/codecs/interfaces and amortizes its price very fast with lower electricity costs.

But believe what you want, I still have my doubts that many people favor such a stopgap solution. You can't prove that there are millions of active multi-GPU setups and I can't prove that there are less than 300k.

They were mentioned because it was part of the example, context and all. And I don't assume people use them, hobbyists might though. (I own a few.)

Those who have high-end SLI fermi's probably haven't upgraded because they don't have the money and from a performance perspective they are still happy with how their setup performs.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
