I haven't read the article yet, but I disagree on principle. AMD processors are a drop-in replacement for any and all software running on Intel chips (except for things that interact with the Management Engine, but that's a small portion of software I hope). Aside from it leaving only one major x86 CPU manufacturer, the only thing Intel's absence would cause would be a massive amount of paperwork, as every system integrator under the sun has to figure out contracts with AMD.
