My first thought was, who cares. However, I realized that this will allow 3d apps to run in virtual machines and over remote desktop, which is kind of cool.

However, I got to the bottom where they compared performance. The best CPUs on the market today are something like a factor of five away from playable frame rates on their benchmark. But hey, the author brags that they match low-end integrated graphics. As I understand it, integrated graphics makes the CPU do most of the work, so I guess that's not surprising.
