Where's threading going?

I don't often follow Intel's web site except during new processor launches, but lately they've improved their software developer site considerably (in my point of view, anyway), and this time I found an interesting article about threading.

The case is that according to Intel, threading will become the next obstacle for application developers. Today, applications still don't support threading as much they could, because developing such applications is often difficult, no matter if you use Win32 or .NET. However, in the future processors will become multicored, and so more and more of processor capacity will be wasted, unless applications can take advantage of the multiple cores. This Intel document is a good place to get started with the dilemma.
