    How many cores do you have?
    Are they playing against each other?
    (imagine playing against cores in windows 8! Multi-core solitaire!)
    Haha, I have a dual-core CPU. =P They struggle to have me like one more then the other.

    1. Core 0 has successfully completed 146,964,681 games of solitaire.
    2. Core 1 has successfully completed 186,516,005 games of solitaire.

    I used to leave my pc on 24/7...however over the years I have amassed a collection of computers...so my energy bill was starting to notice. At present, I have a file server machine in my house that runs 24x7. However, my other machines are turned off. As others have said, these higher power machines are great, but they do consume more energy and give off more heat.
