Intel Graphic Cards Don't Support T&L

For all of us struggling to get an Intel graphics controller to support SMP, you are in for a long struggle. According to Intel they don't support Transform and Lighting.

<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Intel® graphics products do not have hardware support for T&L. In most games, transform and lighting calculations can be performed on the processor with acceptable performance. A small number of games that specifically check for hardware T&L support may fail to run.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Fail to run or, in SMP's case, you can devote large number of hours to tweaking to finally get lousy performance.

Anybody want to recommend SMP compatible graphic controllers for all of us considering an upgrade?
