Apple releases speed- and CPU-bumped G5s
Authored by: macFanDave on Apr 01, '04 12:04:16PM

You are right, you are not geeky enough to get the humor. For whatever reason, (I'm not geeky enough to understand why) multiprocessor machines are built on powers of 2. The next logical step past dual processors is quad and then pipe dreams are built on 8 and 16 CPU machines.

So, to lift and alter a line from "Monty Python & the Holy Grail", three is right out.
