Code morphing was fascinating. I had no idea nVidia tried anything similar.

I always felt Transmeta could have carved out a small but sustained niche by offering even less-efficient "morphing" for other architectures, especially discontinued ones. 680x0, SPARC, MIPS, Alpha, PA-RISC... anything the vendors stopped developing hardware (or competitive hardware) for.
