    Default Jaw-Dropping 6 Cores

    Now, all those quad-CPU AMD users can have 24 cores in one machine!

    Now, to find a kernel that will support this...

    Oh, and it's only 500 bucks.

    I think AMD has found their market. Its the "Its not #, but it is #, which is still better than # while being cheaper than #". I'm not sure what to make of that. ...then again, this isn't a desktop processor, so its not for your average consumer, and thus this argument is pretty much irrelevant. lol
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.
