PPC Graphics Chips-What's your future preference?

So apparently Nvidia and Intel are fighting it out. You got the underdog Nvidia, going against the Intel powerhouse as far as mobile graphics are concerned.

Nvidia says it's new chip, the tegra, will be the future
Intel says it's new chip, the larrabee/atom, will be the future

“Comparing Atom and Tegra is a little bit like comparing something with a V12, 1,000 horsepower [atom] to a hybrid [tegra].”

intel's betting on us wanting the high horses and hoping to somehow create a low-wattage form, whereas Nvidia is basing the chips on ARM in CUDA.

What's more appealing to you?
