Hope AMD land on its feet, the technology industry needs them to keep nvidia and intel in check.

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.
