    Nick and James discuss the third day at CeBIT 2007, and studiously avoid imparting any useful information.

    Check it out over on HEXUS.tv

    btw james most people actually use windows for playing games as to play games in linux you need to mess around with things like wine emulator etc.

    Hehe... and how would that list look if we took off all the clusters...

    And even leaving those on, can you play most games on them on day of release without waiting for a new driver or Linux version...

    everything's a cluster of one sort or another these days; drivers aren't such a problem (hey, we had sli 8800gtx on linux before vista did); and if the games were released then sure

    of course, more fool me for thinking a performance computing enthusiast site might consider the 500 fastest systems in the world as having some sway

    Can you please show some pics when you talk about a product, It is kind of hard to know what it is.

    Good video though
