    Blue Gene/L i believe.

    IBM sells the Blue Gene machines for about $2 million per 1,024-processor rack,
    just the one will do then of course i wouldnt mind a few.

    dont think anyone here has any need for anyhting like this. so the only reason to want one is for what its worth in selling it.

    No liquid nitrogen cooling?

    Oh, and 30" screens (unless you hook up the fancy cinema digital projectors).

    http://digitaltigers.com/zenview-arena-ultrahd.shtml I want those for a start.

    Whoever suggested 2gig of RAM, is obviously still using XP. I have 2 gig of RAM, opened up company of heroes and vista just went "huh, wheres the rest?".

    I wonder how fast 8 raptors would be.

    TBH I'd be more interested in getting a serious internet connection. 1000mbit should do
