OK, seriously. *Where* can you buy a machine that takes more than 2 
physical CPUs? I've tried, just for a laugh, but I cannot find anybody 
who sells them. The best I could come up with is a HP ProLiant with two 
4-core Xeons, giving a total of 8 cores. How on Earth do you get 32 
cores? [And what in the name of God does something like that cost??]

In one of the Hitchhicker's Guide books, there's a spacecraft of some 
kind hidden inside a SEP field, thus rendering it effectively invisible...
