Do we really need it....?
For all the requirement for ppl at home, is just a decent Machine which can perform all the task of Word Processor, email, Browsing, and all those similar things.
See the spec for the Intel's newest Desktop Processor, here, And see that the Processor Consumes 95W power Which is much more than many of the existing processors.
I am not against Technology, But the idea to market the term Quad core CPU for Consumer Market like home is all crap. For Enterprises Intel can plan moves as they want it, But Its bad to even think of a quad core processor based Machine for home use.
Unnecessary wastage of electricity with effective additional output that's what are intel newer CPU's are.
