Yeah, I am very sad that AMD doesn't sell APUs that have octa-cores and close to the graphical prowess of the PS4, nevermind the PS4 Pro.
I'm still waiting to buy something that replaces my ageing AM3 system, but FM1/FM2/FM2+ dropped ECC support which is non-negotiable for me. Hopefully AM4 mainboards will come with ECC support and APUs that perform at least at RX 460 level.

What is the relation of your free software contribution with the >90% of your markets. Did someone threaten you not to contribute to Mesa and with what basis? My opinion is to just pay a third party for a D3D11/12 state tracker - front driver, no one will know and Linux will be yours.
Then MS would block their hardware from running, as part of their agreement with Hollywood, and AMD would lose 90% of their customers.
I don't think the concept is that difficult to understand.
