It would've been better to call it a hexa-core 800mHz machine.
Isn't hexa-core six cores? Whereas this has sixteen.
Yes, probably it should be a hexadecicore or something along those lines.
I take pause at the term of "hexadecicore" and as we go up, it just starts to get more complicated... what would you call a 32 core machine? That just seems like an overly complicated and confusing approach to the problem.
Well, I was obviously playing on "hexadecimal" which isn't great itself; it's a mish-mash of Latin and Greek, and should probably be "deca" instead of "deci" anyway. Regardless, it can't be worse than those stupid resolution acronyms like WUQXVGA which are, for some inexplicable reason, still managing to survive.
