An interesting article from Overclockers.com about an article from the economist.com about the future of computing.
They claim 70% don't know much about computers, 15% know some, we all fit into the last 15%.
To appeal to the 70%... they want to simplify computing...
They claim dual core will be more for

Quote:

A bit further down the road, the real purpose of dual-core processors for most people will probably not be making applications or games run faster, but rather have one processor to do the real "work" and have the other do the increasing amount of "housekeeping" an "easier" computer platform will require.

Interesting...
