    In addition to additional cores, the new Tilera chips include many upgrades from their predecessors. The chips are speedier, running at up to 1.5GHz, with support for 64-bit processing. The chips will be made using the 40-nanometer process, which make them smaller and more power-efficient. Earlier chips were made using the 90-nm process. The chips will start shipping next year, with the 100-core chip scheduled to ship in early 2011. Volume pricing for the chips will range from US$400 to $1,000.
    with 100 cores i could install a native linux distro and run windows on top within a virtual machine, or maybe some will make an add in card for pc's and we'll be able to use the cpu via open cl.

    all i know is i want one.

    Cpu's have to start having faster speed rather than keep building mulitcore chips,the way technology is going chips can be made up to 500ghz and when nano technology gets more developed then we will see unseen breakthroughs in speed.
    I think,therefore i am a hamster.
