LOL. I guess if I open my mouth I should be clear. Intel already ships
multi-core processors.

I should say, "multiple core processors will be available for every person."
We're almost there. Android is shipping multi-core mobile devices,
but they'll remain in limited quantity and use until the become widely
adopted.

At this point a few of you might thing about that (clear throat) laptop
thing - called Android Laptop. Yes, those are multi-core, but they are
crude at best.

IF you must ask, think Iron Man suits running multi-cores.

To be as clear as I can on this, Monolith architecture is on it's way
out. Protocol will be important for the next few years - especially
as we sweep away the current excuses for INIT.

Your guess is as good as mine. Too many variables, but definitely in
our lifetime (if you under 55).
