Generally i don't see multicore systems as a bad thing and they have quite some benefits in terms of scalability and by far lower costs. A big part of the problem comes from the software side and missing underlying concepts and layers which hide all this from you and just let you write your lines of code without thinking of how to split/parallise/synchronise things, not such an issue for the tasks which you can parallise easily but very annoying for the rest. It would be nice if there would show up some software concepts which lift you out of the 70s in the near future.
