This. We will have to wait around for a couple years and see where the 8-core consoles take us and see how that affects applications on the PC. If developers end up taking advantage of multiple cores (something Windows 8 is supposed to do), then we will probably see an upswing on AMD cores. Unfortunately, that probably won't happen.
