More CPU cores / improved parallelism is the obvious choice because you would need it to run the command and control, as well as the targeting for the "Fricken laser beam on my head." Dr. Evil's reasoning for having such a device has convinced me as to it's practicality and usefulness for a near limitless amount of uses, especially when in an "ill tempered" frame of mind. OMG | :OMG: - BRILLIANT!
