For sure, and as someone who has been stuck running Linux on an Intel box after being spoiled by all-AMD for about 6 years, I gotta say, the fact that a lot of AMD stuff "just works" in Linux when you have to jump through hoops for the same from Intel is probably a big reason they're picking up in datacenters, too. Datacenters don't usually run on fucking Windows Server, they usually run Linux, and AMD just plays better with Linux at the moment. (In my personal experience, anyway)
Yes this too is really a turnaround compared to "old times". Intel used to be the safe choice, that's definitely not the case anymore.
