Cool.I wonder if Moores Law now means that every 18 months we will see a doubling of cores instead of speed.

I sure hope that, by then, software will have been developed to use 80 cores. Right now, I have a 2-core system, and they are mainly idle (well, they do scientific research).

Didn't they only recently start putting out dual and quad cores? Or was that for another computer part?
Not computer savvy--be kind.

We've got tera-flops right now, but only in a dual-core version...
