I politely disagree, Intel can't even build GPUs as powerful as NVidia (or AMD) and all of it's offerings so far have been very sub-par in terms of massively parallel computing. They have an insane amount of knowledge on fabricating chips, researchers, and money (though Apple does too). At least, I feel that if Intel can't compete with NVidia and AMD in the GPU space neither can Apple.
Maybe with the return of the mac pro, etc, we'll see Apple focus on pure computing power in a new, unseen, way and I'll be wrong they need acquire... But short of something absolutely herculean ($100bn investment), I don't see them coming out on top.

Seeing how well Apple has done creating performant CPUs compared to Intel given the thermal and power constraints of mobile and how far they have come with GPUs for mobile, they could probably do well. On the other hand, the future is mobile. Has AMD and NVidia shown any skill in developing GPUs for mobile that are competitive with Apple?
