Dvorak has vague inklings as to what's going on:

Not really, first the 4 TB is full with HD recordings in a day or so.
Look up HD editing
'Clean disks?" whats he running windows?
You tube streaming o na separate core?
What a waste of a super fast powerful core.
Webcam? Even less bandwidth.

Twittering, blogs, yes you _REALLY_ need 10 extra cores for that.
The man is an idiot.

WHOAAAAAA!
And that Intel guy is a salesman.
Now that they are faster then AMD all of the sudden speed is important.

I have to admit that I was more pessimistic about Intel, but hey, maybe I will
be proven right once they have 80 cores with 70 idle..

So you and Mr Brown agree that computing has already reached its
pinnacle of perfection, and the trillion-transistor chips with
hundreds of CPU's will always run Windows, and the individual CPU's
will always multitask, because that's efficient.

Well, since absolutely nothing in technology has changed in the last
20 years, I suppose it's safe to assume nothing will change in the
next 20 either.
