A product that Amd has been working on for a while now. Amd fusion is designed the way many mobile CPU's in which you combine multiple components onto one chip called system-on-chips, Amd wants to bring that chip design philosophy to desktop pcs. The family of processors is called APUs or accelerated processing units. The chip combines an Amd processor with ATI Graphics. Lets say you were to go from a HP DV6 to HP DM1 well you compromise a lot of performance if you were to get a DM1, but you would get a smaller form factor. Part of What fusion will bring is a having a large amount of performance no matter how big or how small something is. Pretty soon graphics cards will disappear the way sounds cards did.
Here are some technical demonstrations
