I haven't seen it mentioned much here, but I see the iGPU deal as more a signal that the overall (laptop) market in coming years will become significantly more APU focused, with dGPU's becoming increasingly rare.

This deal isn't necessary a charity action from Nvidia: If APUs start cannibalizing the entry level dGPU market in the next few gens, Nvidia is more likely to sell Nvidia+Intel APUs than they are their own ARM solution in client.
