They do have DVI chips and boards, which implement Intel's proprietary compression algorithms, which are based on vector quantization rather than DCT. A new generation DVI chip (code named V3) has been promised by Intel for this year that is supposed to implement MPEG as well, but the rumor is that the new chips are late and won't ship this year.
