The AMD Server team has announced a contest where they are seeking the best essays, videos, or blog posts documenting how you might use 48 cores. They are primarily looking for "what you can do to help society, to help others. That will give you an edge."

So, what would you do with 48 cores?

Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with AMD (I am even not eligible for the contest because I don't live in the US/Canada) but would love to see what the SO community can come up with.
