What AMD and intel don't seem to realize is that people like me have no qualms moving to platforms that do support linux (Even if we end up using a raspberry pi to do our main computing).

The result is that amd will just alienate some of it's customers and end up with a smaller audience. Well done, AMD.

I think they believe that such an audience is rather small. However, I do think it's a stupid move. If they continue supporting Windows exclusively, they might run into problems with the server crowd. Which is a pretty important group.
The sever crowd that uses crappy tablet chips? To be clear, Opteron still fully supports Linux.
