I think the multi core thing is very good for us developers who want to get some study in at home. By the time you're running oracle, an ejb container & anything else, you start to get greatful for the concurrency ability of your box. For this reason I have an old poweredge 6300 (4 * 450Mhz 1Mb cache zeons) to deploy onto & another computer to develop on. Probably better now to run on a dual core box, however, pricewise, I know which is easier on the pocket.
Before, I wouldn't have wanted to run a whole suite of applications on one computer as it'd just start to get too painful.
