Thanks for your suggestions, but wouldn't GPU(s) be better for those applications? How would a 48-core computer perform against a couple of the new Tesla C2050 cards, for example?
True, but much is parallel of parallel systems. Where much of that has to be done at the same time I am currently drifting away from GPU/CPU trying to head now to unified processing power where all of the system can used GPU/CPU and both. Nothing of the system is wasted.

your internet connection will have more of an effect on that then sheer processing power.

Well... I can model it, give you the antenna pattern, mathematically figure out your line of sight to any other antenna, power over distance, Fresnel zone obstructions, working on multipath and reflections now... but build one? I haven't a clue....

She wanted something super thin, super light... it was that or a netbook. Except for exchanging data, most things are easier for her on the iPad because she doesn't want to learn computers, just use them.

Where did it come from?
Well... see... there was this crash [^]in the desert of New Mexico... Then Bob's disk-mates were carted off by the Army for medical experimentation, but Bob was carried off unconscious by a roving band of friendly Hamsters.... Bob walked dazed and upset throughout the country with his hamster friends hiding from everyone until they finally found a peaceful home at CodeProject. You can still see the tears in the one eye for his lost disk-mates.... P.S.... Every now and then the US Army tries to break into Code Project Servers to find the exact location of Bob to "repatriate" him for more medical experimentation. The Hamsters get upset, everyone hurriedly moves Bob to a new room in case the special forces squad breaks in.... and then everything returns to normal when nothing happens.... The Hamsters are very protective of Bob.

Which is exactly why I will never ask, even at my heaviest I would rather lose all circulation and be the last off the flight because I can't stand for long until circulation returns.... 200lbs lost is still not enough.... I'll drive 14 hours straight before I will even consider flying....

Maybe I just missed it, but I just discovered today that there is a 3D option on the Google Maps Street View - so get your red and blue glasses out of the TV Times
It's kind of new, but basically a reprocessing of old data. The original street-view data is collected by a camera collecting video as a vehicle drives it around. Every n'th frame is collected as a still image, and if there is ever a major problem they can jump back or forth a frame and no one will know. But take any two adjacent video frames at a constant speed? stereoscopic images! :-D
