Imagine: it's one-fiftieth the up-front cost and one-two-thousandth the energy cost of one of the best deals you can get for X86-64 processors.
And that's in its earliest run. A commenter pointed out the last time this came up (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3390402) that "the GA144 uses essentially antique fab technology. With no changes to the design and the latest fabrication techniques you could (theoretically) get an order of magnitude more cores on the same sized die and drive power consumption down further."
