In our coverage on the Apple press event earlier this week, where Steve Jobs introduced a revamp of all the company's notebooks (as well as a new Cinema Display), an error leaked into our story. We said that the new dual-GPU MacBook Pros used Hybrid SLI so you could use both graphics chips at the same time for better performance, but as it turns out, this isn't the case. This was my fault since Jobs didn't actually claim any Hybrid SLI being used. To detail the matter further, Apple has released a support document explaining the features of the dual GPU architecture.

Apple's hybrid graphics technology is supported under the MacOS X operating system version 10.5.6 and higher only.
To my understanding, that means either that the SLI will be supported in the next OSX revision, or that OpenCL will be able to take advantage to the two simultaneously.
The latter.
