A letter to AMD:

As we all know, mining Bitcoin or Litecoin are big selling point of AMD graphics cards, but this advantage will disappear when dedicated ASIC device emerge in the near future. Can your company consider this situation by adding dedicated accelerated unit or instruction set to furture AMD CPU and GPU generation for better Bitcoin & Litecoin mining?

Dear Customers,

Please send $1999 per unit you wish to purchase and we will get back to you in eight months.  Maybe. 

But don't expect us to let you know what we are doing.

Bitcoin has attracted AMD's attention:  http://www.amd.com/us/products/desktop/graphics/7000/7970/Pages/radeon-7970.aspx

Fold and mine faster than ever with AMD App Acceleration powered by the unprecedented 28nm GCN Architecture.6

Pretty much this. They know and care to a point. That point is they will acknowledge mining in their marketing and probably not drastically alter their chip architecture to be like Nvidia and suddenly suck at mining, because that would be too much R&D. Will they release dedicated mining cards that are less capable on the graphics side, no.

They don't mention bitcoin by name, but they mention "mining" when they start talking about HPC applications.

They might jump into the game down the road, when Bitcoins are worth $1,000 or $10,000/ea, but Intel and NVIDIA would be just as likely.

Considering Bitcoin mining is forbidden at the AMD offices, I don't see this happening.
