One major problem with the Intel drivers is that their products are
typically EOL'ed (end-of-lifed) three years after first release - at which
point they stop receiving driver updates (not even bug fixes).

You can see the problem with the integrated graphics in Intel's Sandy
Bridge chips (introduced Q1 2011). You cannot get any OpenGL drivers dated
newer than April 2014 - and some OpenGL features we require simply aren't
working with this driver release.

And so we have to tell some of our customers that their laptops have use
Ivy Bridge or later microarchitecture - or be equipped with a separate
dedicated graphics chip.
