Intel 965G runs Aero Glass just fine

http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=37814

Just in case the 'Droids are wondering. AMD's claims about Intel integrated graphics not running Vista are just FUD.

WE MANAGED to run Aero Glass on an Intel integrated G965 chipset. We used Windows Home Premium edition. Intel's own DG965 motherboard worked just fine and we used two by 512MB memory.

Vista performance tool scores 3.8 and the handsome looking interface looks the same on Nvidia's and ATI's discrete graphic cards. You need to get the new Intel driver in order to make it work well. This test and benchmarketing idea comes after our conversation with Josh Newman, Intel's chipset product marketing director who claimed that the G965 as well as 945G and 945GM run Vista Aero "beautifully". We can now confirm that G965 doesn’t have any problems chewing the Aero Glass cud.
