CPU vs. GPU

In true Mythbusters style, they are demonstrating the difference between single core and multicore processors, or basically the state between CPUs and GPUs.

Then, they unveil a paintball gun with 2100 barrels to complete the GPU analogy, and paint a somewhat elaborate picture in just under a second.
