64 Cores???
 

Let's also leave aside the technical feasibilty of building a 64-core processor by 2012: having a dual-socket system with two 32-core processors using 22nm process technology is roughly the equivalent of a dual-socket 65nm Barcelona system today.

No doubt a select few for whom no level of processing power is enough would be happy to have and pay a pretty penny for such systems.

But what about the rest of us?

Let's not obsess about the specific number 64; 32 or 16 or even 8 will serve just as well.

Just what is the average Joe going to do with 8 or 16 or whatever processors? What could he do with so many?
