64Bit: Most likely will survive but don't have any use for the near future.
MultiCore: Thats definitely the future.
AM2: No solution. I would bet that this socket is dropped next year or the year after. AMD bought ATI and it is only a question of time until ATIs ring bus system is used for AMD CPUs to raise their multicore power. The current CPU design makes AMD a good joke at best. They were great but didn't try to evolve further since they were leader in performance rankings.
