I wonder if something like this http://www.tomshardware.com/2008/03/04/amd_780g_chipset/ won't have a big effect in the future. Don't know when or if they will ever release a laptop version.

AMD has a somewhat similar chipset they are developing for the Xbox 360 down the line only it's a one chip does it all solution. CPU and GPU mashed together in a single chip.
