NVIDIA and Intel have a tendency of trash talking each other. The companies have had more than a couple of sandbox wars and it looks like we're approaching the next. NVIDIA has commented on the news of Intel postponing integrated support for USB 3.0 until 2011. According to NVIDIA this is a result from Intel forced out any third-party developers from its processor platform and can do whatever it feels like.
NVIDIA spokes person Brian Burke doesn't say where he got the information on Intel postponing its launch of USB 3.0, but would the information be made up we can count on Intel coming out hard and throw a bucket back at NVIDIA. Something it usually doesn't.

Burke doesn't hold back and even we should take this with a load of salt he has a point that these things do happen on markets where there is little to no competition.
"With no one to push Intel to innovate, PC enthusiasts are left with Intel chipsets and the features and performance they deliver, or lack there of.
This applies to all markets and just look what happened to Microsoft, it produced one of its best operating systems ever after it started to lose some serious ground to competing operating systems.
