I can't wait when intel cpu's have integrated apu's or something of the same power and similar benchmarks as the amd cpu's that suck!
Intel= Bad integrated graphics
Amd= Good integrated graphics, worse cpu

I doubt that will ever happen, intel probably spend more time on the CPU part and the GPU chip is an afterthought.

The Intel CPUs are already technically APUs. APU is the name that AMD have given their chips with graphics on the die.

I doubt Intel will catch up with AMD on the graphics. Hell, AMD make high performance gaming GPUs. The only experience that Intel has had in the Consumer market of GPUs is the GMA series and the HDxxxx series.
