This hype is huge, but, will there actuially be a marked increase in non-graphical responce times?

I understand the need for more cores if you are playing hi-res games, or using very demanding applications, however beyond that, I don't see a practical application.

If the processor is more expensive to produce, and is must faster specifically for games, you can count me out.

Maybe for games this will be great, but for anything else? Why even bother, go for a 1ghz or sub processor.
