That's right. But it does give a feel for what infinity is to our finite minds. It ain't just big numbers. It's all computation! (For a certain definition of computation)

Enumerating the natural numbers is only a single trivial computation. Enumerating the digits of Pi is a bit more involved, but it ain't universal, either.
