    I don’t believe this meme for a second.

    Wikipedia:

    The production of single-core desktop processors ended in 2013 with the Celeron G440, G460, G465 & G470.

    Those are so weak it’s not even funny.

      Intel still makes Celerons that are probably just slightly faster than these

        They could have made them even slower if the old architecture doesn’t cost so much more to manufacture.

      I have done significant work on a machine with a single 8MHz core and 8Mbytes of RAM that I shared with several people.
