UGH! All this infrastructure and all this work into a software platform and it's something that will be obsoleted in a few years by off the shelf GPUs built on an standard development environment backed by industry That's the problem of building something super-cutting-edge on a grand scale - you run the risk of making a super evolved version of an evolutionary dead end. Sure it sounds like a cool idea at the time, the Cell optimized SETI At Home demo around the PS3 launch ripped through work units far more quickly than any Intel system. I wonder what became of the cluster once it was decommissioned? Military surplus PS3s anyone? |

If it touched at any time any kind of confidential data or algorithms it was probably shredded into tiny pieces.
