How have are they "forgetting the core market", what have they done to make you think gaming & discrete video in general isn't an important segment.

They are expanding and working to create new markets that have not yet matured. If every inventor stopped every time somebody said that won't work or nobody's going to need that we wouldn't be where we are today.

Luckily the world isn't full of pessimism and there are always people that can see the light at the end of the tunnel looking for new ways to do the same things we do today better, faster, cheaper.

Its just EVERY bit of info so far i've seen doesnt say anything about GAMING .. thats all maybe its jsut poor marketing or their holding it off but meh... seems silly as you an I know the people buying it, are going to be using it for games not to accelerate flash or we :/... make sense ??

I agree, but my post one abiove yours (another edited bit) youll see my views on that i.e its a good idea, but in the long run amd and intel can kinda just block them out by just doing it on the apu/gpu on the cpu sorta thing.. and tbh nothing stopping them I just think althought its a good thing to "adventure" like this. Its just a bad looking one for the future i may be wrong but meh??? I think you might see where im coming from though

I'm not being pessimistic atall imo i like change.. i loved the 8 series + the 4 series they where both awesome same with say amd 64 owning then Pentium 4.. I just believe this will fail the whole general processing stuff.. just for the pure fact nothings stopping amd and intel from doing it but just in a few years time after they have it on die, cos imo once it's on there and say accelerating the program its still going to get a massive improvement over the normal cpu's but i dont think people will purchase a card to do something the cpu can do pretty much just as well (in the future i have to add)
