Naaah . More cores doing stuff alone make it better. TOO many cores doesn't help tho that's for sure. That's why I'd prefer them to stop at something like 8 or 16 =/. I mean, will we really need to separate stuff more than in 16 parts? Not sure... 16 should be plenty enough... No? =/

And a group of stupid men are so stupid that they overestimate the power of the smart man. Proven by time...

We don't need 8-16 cores but you can bet your a$$ that once they become available some lame-ass coders will fall back on it and say o well people have like 16 cores now so we don't need to worry about how much of a crappy job we do as just about anything will run perfectly on THAT much power...

Schumi, this would happen with one core with a lot of power too. This happen with everything . Anytime new hardware is made there will be people trying to take advantage of that power, and some who will use it as a excuse to do a piss poor job.
