One can only hope. Would be amazing if they launched Thuban and an MCM of Thubans at the same time. The only problem is I fear the lack of clockspeeds won't make Thuban and the Magny-cours AM3 alternative competitive. AMD already has trouble with 4 cores at 3+GHz, I can't imagine 6 cores let alone 12 would run cool at an even 3GHz AMD needs a die revision like C0 -> D0 for Intel Bloomfield.
Thuban is going to be even less competitive with Westmere than Deneb was with Bloomfield...
