RE:"Software developers will not want to support both; computer buyers will not want to deal with the headaches. One will win out, and that will be Intel's, by virtue of their market share. Since everyone knows this, support for AMD's x86-64 will drop to almost nothing the moment Intel makes their announcement (never mind when it ships)."

Yep, just like 3D-now vs SSE iterations. Developers are all too willing to follow Intel even if they are following AMDs lead. Strangely enough, AMD seem hopeless to do anything about it.
