Is Kompressor going to make Intel compatible with shadows/shaders?
Kaboomers:
Yeah, I've been waiting for months and months for this update, only to not be able to see any of what I was hoping for. I'm sure Kompressor and Hartman could do something for all the intel and mac users.

This quote alone can imply some things.

The people with laptops are in Badspot's focus, he's going to work on fixing the issues that people with laptops are experiencing. Yes there is that list in the Bugs thread where he goes on about people having a crappy set-up and how it's not a problem - but this isn't the same thing. That's optimization and will be improved.
So don't worry. All these problems everyone is having will most likely be fixed within the next few weeks or so and people on laptops/integrated graphics will be able to see Shadows and Shaders.
Corbiere:
Whilst Badspot is right that massive optimisation would be required to run the shaders on intel, it doesn't mean they're impossible. I'm used to having to play games on very low to low settings due to my graphics card, but it's better than nothing.
Awdax:
I don't mind if my laptop can't handle the shadows and shaders. As long as I can still enable them and see them for quick screenshots, I'm fine.
