Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun Huang Opens A Can of Words on Intel

Intel hasn't made a decent integrated graphics chip to date
Eh? My work pc has some kind of old intel integrated graphics (i845?)
and it's just fine, does a very decent job of running opengl apps etc.
Newer chips are supposedly much faster (and the upcoming generation even
better of course). Intel knows their market.
I suppose gamers want something much studlier, but what intel makes is
fine for normal use.
Intel's also made a lot of friends because of their very open attitude
-- while nvidia is _still_ pulling the "no you can't have the specs that
allow you to support our hardware" bull****. [They'll come around
eventually, but in the meantime it sure as hell isn't making them look
any better.]
In any case, the Nvidia guy's rant seemed pretty pathetic... If he wants
to project confidence, that was exactly the way _not_ to do it.
