Can't argue with you there. The only thing that was going for intel was 
the good linux support without needing binary blobs, but this seems to 
be going backwards now.

The new integrated video chipsets from nvidia blow intel out the water. 
Going to see a lot of these in the cheaper end of the market not too soon.
