A few weeks ago Intel released information on an 80 core processor they've developed that can
perform a trillion (that's 1000000000000) operations per second. I don't know what the advantage
to having a graphics card complement a cpu is, other than the fact that it would be modular and
therefor more flexible, but I'd support it. If nVidia wants to give me another cpu more power to them,
I dunno how Intel would feel about that though :P

On a sidenote, that Intel processor with 80 cores could actually perform more operations a second, but
they have yet to build any software to support it. :unlove:

80 core processor?!?!  Well, that'd probably be a fair way off.  If I recall correctly, they planned the 8 core processor for around 2008.
Even if they did have an 80 core, they wouldn't release it anytime soon (it's all about business :P)
