I wouldn't get too excited.  Intel exited the discrete graphics market in the 90s because their solutions sucked.  The i740 was a card most people wouldn't touch.

While their graphics have been good enough for every day use, unless they can pull a rabbit out of their hat with current product evolving - or kept working on Larabee quietly, I'm not THAT excited about Intel coming back into the market.

Of course, I always welcome more competition to the market.  But given that Intel and AMD are working together on CPU/GPU packages, I wouldn't hold my breath.
