[Arm-netbook] [review] SoC proposal

[lkcl luke]

http://www.tensilica.com/uploads/pdf/LX4.pdf - i'm just reading what's
on page 1, in the bottom left-hand corner.  um... i'm having a bit of
conceptual difficulty understanding what 100 Giga-MACs is, when
compared to say... the engines you find in a GPU.

could someone be kind enough to explain it to me, using like...
y'know, words with only a few syllables, and maybe paint some pretty
pictures?  i'm trying not to sound flippant but i just can't get my
head round such monstrously-large numbers.
