" Released with enormous fanfare, the i740 proved to have disappointing real-world performance[1], and sank from view after only a few months on the market"

"...BDW+ supports 48-bit addressing which allows the CPU and GPU to share addresses trivially. This means no relocations are required and that's a great driver simplification and performance improvement."

I could use some Vulkan working on my old Sandybridge laptop
This also isn't a Vulkan driver, but just OpenGL. The Intel ANV Vulkan driver also isn't being extended back further than what it already does due to hardware requirements and not wasting resources on a half-baked driver for already slow hardware.
