I can duplicate that story with 2 of them, running the 10.04.4 LTS Ubuntu 
linux server edition, with a special rtai patched realtime kernel, running 
a lathe and a milling machine.  Some folks would call that dangerous 
machinery. But the on board i915 video works flawlessly, and quite a bit 
faster than VESA.  These are machines that would get retired or the job 
offloaded to a $90 specialty card if the IRQ latency ever went above 5 
microseconds.  More usual measurement is 2 microseconds. For this bit of 
critical usage, all one can say about them is that they Just Work(TM).

Cheers, Gene Heskett
