Why would anyone in their right mind want to go SLI in a low-profile case? Especially since most of those cases are M-ATX only, and I don't know of any M-ATX boards that support SLI.

Software SLi is pretty much self explanatory, you just enable SLi via software and there is no need for a bridge.

That's a very good idea. Definately intended only at HTPC's then with only the HDMI and S-video outputs.

Bit odd to showcase it on an ATX mobo with a massive heatsink on the cpu though.
