AMD Fusion System Architecture Unifies CPUs and GPUs

I was bored so I just searched up when the nVidia Kepler (GTX 600 series) and AMD Southern Islands (Radeon HD 7000 series) will be out just to give me a rough idea on how to start a new build in late Q3 and I came across this article

Quote:
If you thought that AMD’s new A-Series CPU-and-GPU-on-a-chip (APU) was cool, hold on to your seats: the A-Series is just the first step in unifying CPU and GPU architectures in such a way that developers see just a single, multi-purpose processing unit. It’s called the Fusion System Architecture (FSA), and rather shockingly it will make its debut with AMD’s upcoming Southern Islands (Radeon HD 7000-series) graphics cards.

whattya think? I could see this keeping desktop build prices down but no overhead for OC
