About 7-8 years ago when I did the parallel search for Crafty, many said "why?
that will only apply to special-purpose machines and not mainstream computing."

I replied that within a few years, _every_ machine will have two or more
processors.  This is the beginning of that prophesy.  In another few years all
programs will either be parallel or "loser". :)
