Dan, <developers will focus more on tuning their code to be useable on the older systems>

I agree if you are talking about the latest version of America Online. But real performance-sensitive apps, such as games, will be tuned to the processor architecture that will be most prevalent in the near future. That's probably one reason why AMD is on a quixotic quest to grab unit market share at any cost.
