Didn't intel (and AMD with the new opterons) already release quad cores? 


EDIT: I guess I should have read the article.  Makes sense now.

Interesting.  People smarter than me should add their thoughts to this thread so I can steal them and sound smart later.

pfft why would I want 3 cores when I could get 4 (good idea though re-using bad 4 core chips)? I guess we'll have to wait and see what the benchmarks have to say.

I read about this a few days ago, and like Jedi said, what about quad cores. There is already a mainstream intel quadcore available, and something super fast will be quite affordable in a few months, so whatever.
