Ummm...not everything today can utilize all 4 cores. it's not a matter of a new CPU have so many, it has to do with whether or not programs can utilize so many. The noob has a point!

In this case, I don't think it's a matter of feasible=realistic, more than it is a 'look what we can do', ie: bragging rights for the most part.
