AMD "AMD's plan to integrate a CPU and GPU on a single chip, codenamed Fusion, has been a hot topic since the CPU manufacturer first announced it planned to purchase ATI. AMD hasn't had much to say about Fusion lately, beyond confirming that the project exists and is still in development, but new rumors have surfaced over what form Fusion might take when it surfaces in 2009."

oh, wow. I never thought about that scenario. That'd actually be pretty sweet. Even when a graphics chip is too old to properly run a super intensive game/3d app/whatever, it'll still trump the general purpose cpu in a lot of tasks...
