"If n-force is that great, what is to keep Intel from picking it up?"

Other than stupidity? Not all that much, although it would not help the P4 nearly as much as it will the Athlon, particularly the ponies. I guess if they convinced nVidia to change the crossbar to give both 64 bit memory busses to the processor when needed, it could supply the bandwidth the P4 needs at the expense of the video section, but that would be a significant re-work.
