That will help in the server market but will do nothing for 99% of desktop users.

also amd is doing fine on the server side right now they have been doing better than intel there for years.
Another outright distortion.

No professional analyst/observer of the server market(i.e. IDC, Mercury etc) gives AMD a larger share of the server market than Intel.

What you have done at best, is redefine the term "server market" to that tiny niche where AMD does better, but that is not how it works in the real world where terminology is universally accepted so that meaningful Apples to Apples comparions can take place, rather than fanboy worship.
