Since the launch of .net 4.0 a new term that has got into lime light is parallel computing. Does parallel computing provide us some benefits or its just another concept or feature. Further is .net really going to utilize it in applications ?

Further is parallel computing different from parallel programming ?

Kindly throw some light on the issue in perspective of .net and some examples would be helpful.

Thanks...
