Taking a closer look at the AMD Phenom II TWKR Black Edition Processor we see that the processor has a part number of 42. We contacted AMD and they said that they had to give the part a model number and picked 42 as it means 4 cores at 2 GHz. They also stated that it’s "a bit of an homage to ‘Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy’ as it is the answer to What is the meaning of life, the universal and everything..."

I knew there was a reason I liked AMD stuff
