Default Intel and USB-3: How are Nvidia and Microsoft involved?

Intel has been dragging it's feet over providing USB-3 support in it's
chipsets. This is because it really would rather see it's own "Light
Peak" fiber-optic solution become an industry standard instead.

Nvidia has been making a lot of noise over the fact that Intel has been
delaying USB3, but I'm not sure why Nvidia has a stake in this or why
Intel's delays affect Nvidia.

Then there is Microsoft, who did not give Windows Seven any native USB-3
drivers - not even in the recently released SP1.

I haven't seen these issues talked about here.
