Awsome. Just awesome!

I predicted this five years ago, while chatting with some Computer Club members.

Well, not exactly this. They're using Pentium-class cores, where our discussion compared i686 and i386 cores.

I'm torn on their using a 32-bit core as a base, though. I spend enough time on 4GB+ PCs that I loathe the idea of dropping back to a 32-bit memory model, though; There really is an advantage to having more than 4GB of directly-addressable address space.
