Direct compute. Part of DX specs, just need more push to get a true open source, industry standard processing model. ATI supports it, Nvidia is just throwing money at CUDA, they saw the writing on the wall when Intel wouldn't allow them a X86 license.
Almost all their chipset business has gone away, and with the majority of market-share coming from midrange PC's with IGP or the like they will be losing this business soon as CPU's will have the Intel, or AMD brand GPU built in. So they will have a specialized market for discreet GPU's only, and I can tell you that for every one PC sold with a graphics card there are 10-15 sold with IGP. Imagine your market share dropping 80-90%.
They came up with this scheme to generate interest in their specialized market product, CUDA. It seems to be doing well for them, I hope it continues to do well. They are providing the competition to AMD that keeps us from paying another $599 for the high end single GPU card.
