GMA600 and GMA3600/3650are used on many Windows 8 Atom tablets, Fujitsu Q550, KUPA X11, and more. According to specs it should support DirectX 10, and judging by it's performance on iPads (same PowerVR core) the chip itself delivers nice performance.
The current Windows 7 driver is hardly providing any HW acceleration. Most Windows 8apps crash or display a blank screen. And those that don't, have abysmal performance.
Microsoft and tablet manufacturers should be quite wary about getting a bad publicity for Windows tablets if they want toget some market share from Apple. So, if we put the pressure on Microsoft, Fujitsu, HP, Dell, KUPA and other tablet manufacturers, they would force Intel to provide a proper Windows 8 driver.

Never Intel again. But Microsoft has the ability to force Intel, providing new drivers (bundled in the OS like most printer drivers).
We have got a lot of GMA 3600 (Shutte X35) machines running in our school and hope there will be drivers available ! A teacher from the Netherands
I tried getting anything else installed on my Slate 2 but to my surprise any and all support is non existent on it. It seems hopeless to release a device which they will not properly support.
Intel Atom D2700 processor is built for x64 architecture, but there is only Win7 32-bit drivers. Make Windows 8.1 64-bit drivers.
it is not acceptable do not support users for so long time.my tablet dell st 400 latitude gma 600
We want windows 8 and 10 back
We need the driver

This seems to be a case of planned obsolescence - not a good way for Intel to do business. Unless there's a legitimate reason that a driver can't be written for this chipset (I haven't seen that published yet) we are yet more victims of corporate irresponsibility.
