At the heart of this covert battle is the integrated graphics market, and some of the claims attached to it.
Intel senior vice president Pat Gelsinger fired the first volley at the Intel Developer Forum last week in Shanghai.

Gelsinger's bold statement was an introduction to Intel's upcoming Larrabee graphics architecture, but it was enough to put NVIDIA on full alert.
