Coupled with the (apparently easily designed) ability to decide how many VMs to include on a chip, and a built in way of breaking a problem up into pieces for parallel processing by those VMs, along with the ability to look for other cells with VMs accessible to the owner for problems that are too large for the current chip.

Does sound pretty revolutionary to me; want a cluster? Buy a dozen of 'em and network 'em. Bang -- automagic computing cluster.
