This is a major mistake for AMD - they are shooting themselves in the foot and I would expect Intel to be a winner and people switching over. New architecture ? Are you kidding me ? What about the millions and millions of computer users and existing applications ? You think people will dump all their x86 OS, apps, etc, no way - My AMD Athlon 64 x2 will be my LAST AMD CPU, after that I will be switching to Intel - AMD is making one mistake after another.
