[ODE] Havok and NVIDIA present Havok FX at GDC 2006

[steve1011]

Yep, I was wrong. I read too much between the lines and assumed when 
Ageia said their SDK would seemlessly support their PhysX PPU and that 
the PS3 would have PCI slots that the PS3 would support the PhysX PPU as 
an add-on card. In everything I read, I was biased toward believing PS3 
would support h/w physics. At the moment I can't find any specific 
reference to PS3 and PhysX PPU. I still wish for it to be true but I 
slipped in promoting something out of my imagination. Thanks to all who 
keep us sharp.
