Seeing this made me laugh and wonder to myself--is the difference between Intercooled and SE that the hamster that turns the crank is given steroids before shipping?

Seriously, though, thanks once again, Bill, for the clear and useful explanation.

One way to picture a computer is as a machine with gears and a crank
sticking out of the side:

                                             +--==     <- crank
                  +---------------------+    |
                  |  ||   ||   ||   ||  |    |
      shaft ->    +---------------------+----+
                  |  ||   ||   ||   ||  |
                  +---------------------+

                    The  --  is one gear on a shaft.

The picture above is an illustration of a 4-bit computer.
