Did you guys actually read the article...?
There are some surface similaritys to CUDA but the approach to the problem is diameterically opposite from Nvidia's.
Intel are not targetting the intergrated market with this as Intel are already one of the biggest suppliers of intergrated chipsets already so they would be competing largely with themselves.
This is something very different, a completey seperate approach to delivering fast, scaleable, performance.
Just taking NVidia's word for it that Intel's approach won't work seems a little naive to me. The Anand article is much more objective, balanced and very thorough (with the info that's available) please read it, then comment.
