Anandtech have got a piece up on Intel's new Larrabee (GPU) which many of you might find very interesting. If it works it could mean an end to proprietry API's and 3D Acceleration as we know it. It could also allow programmers complete flexibility to code for and on a fully flexible GPU.

It's certainly the most interesting development in GFX I've seen for ages. It is an Anandtech article so it does go into a lot of detail but I found it a very interesting read (although I confess to skimming a couple of the very techy bits).
