NEC has announced a $100,000 (in minimum config) SUPERCOMPUTER for personal use. The HPC Server SX-8i is a "deskside" (to big for the desktop) vector operation supercomputer that performs 16GLOPS. The SX-8i can mount up to 32GB of RAM and delivers a throughput of 64GB/sec between the processor and memory, ensuring highly efficient use for advanced scientific and computing applications. It ships in February 2006. I want one.
