The power to render many minutes of animation and still have functional machine to do the rest of my daily activity. I use a virtual machine running windows 7 for my animation software and if I want to convert a HD movie at the same time as I do everything else it shows a definite slow down. I remember that very same question with a 1 megabyte ram came out...what would you do with all that ram..... Same thing with cores. What would you do with all that power. The short answer is there will never be enough power to a machine as as soon as it is developed we see a need for more and more. Bloody computer junkies eh!!!!
