Maybe once Intel is forced (as is required in the settlement) to disclose every case in its compiler and libraries where optimizations are not applied to non-Intel processors, they'll suddenly find a reason to switch.

You don't know why AMD performance isn't optimized do you?

Once the developers realize they'll have even more reason to stick with Intel.
