No probs, but its just as bad your way as the forums will fill up with support threads from lots of people asking how to make this that or the other run when in most cases it won't work. All it does is waste people's time and frustrate users who are being told their hardware is ok, when in many cases and many configurations...its not and there is no workable solution for them.
According to the devs I've spoken to, for things like PCSX2 and some of the higher end games in Mame, for the moment at least a reasonable Core2Duo 'is' the only reliable solution, its got nothing to do with 'liking' Intel or AMD, I personally couldn't care less who makes the chips, all the companies are as pointlessly corporate as one another but I won't advise people to keep trying with hardware that's unlikely to give them the results they are looking for.
You know what's funny? retroguiden was just about to finish this argument because it goes nowhere, and then you suddenly replied this. And you tell me that you're not a fanboy? Haha...
1st.: Buying a whole new platform - which is not just complete different mut much more expensive too - is never ever a well suggestion. At this moment, BOTH sides has great CPU's for high end games, and yes, AMD is STILL cheaper.
2nd.: PS2 emulation is already not finished. I understand the devs because that's the platform they work, so it's a sure thing that they will threath it better than any other. But because of that, their opinion is not fully subjective, nor as your's.
