    Brilliant! Thank you. I might have to come up with a different naming scheme for my PC's however, because that one might be a little long for a network name. :)

                              Yes I agree, but it's only 250W when it's running at max effort. Most of the time it will probably be much less.

                                    Here's something I can't find the right keywords for googling: A PC with a six-core processor would be called Hexacore. With an eight-core processor it would be called Octacore. What would it be called with 32 cores? I found what the basic multiples of 10 are: hecto, kilo, mega and so forth but I don't know how to put them together to make 32. Can anyone help with this?

                                    What would it be called with 32 cores?

                                    '32 cores' We dont have to use poncy Latin all the time you know. Good old Saxon is perfectly OK.

                                        Yes, latin numbers. Why do British people feel they have to use latin (or french) words? Why are they ashamed of Saxon ones?

                                          That was not my point. Hexa is not a Latin prefix. Duotrigesima, however, it is Latin.
