"The MRI data is read by a computer and then turned into the image that the Radiologist looks at. Dee Dee Dee..."

Current MRI machines do not take days to "read" the MRIs.
The MRI computer reconstructs the data from the scan immediately after each sequence ends. There are 5 to 10+ sequences per study depending on the anatomy scanned. The computer does no "reading" of the images. Once all data is acquired, the MRI tech then sends the study to a DICOM server that the Radiologist then has access to. Current MRI machines and post-processing workstations are very quick, almost instant.
The guy in the video states that the multi core computer can quicken the read times of MRIs??? MRI images are interpreted by a Radiologist, and not by a computer. The computer is useful in post processing, but post-processing in MRI is currently very fast. By this thought process, I bet this new multi-core could make you run faster too.

Somehow I don't think i would look as good as Han Solo wearing this.

More than meets the eye
If I win, I wouldn't have to listen to my noisy MRI machine.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
