Using MIPS (Meaningless Indicator or Processing Speed), each core
is probably faster than anything Cray produced, (back when Seymour was alive),
any VAX, and so on.
IMHO they'll sell a lot of them. Probably too many to people who think
that having a Cray under their desk makes them a scientist. :-(
Ok, for a really important question, how fast can one rip a Blue Ray disk?
