    can we all chip in to get one ?

    one peta flop per second ~ worlds biggest computer

    i believe it would cost about 30 million to buy and about 10 million per year for electricity (from what i have read) but can we all chip in and get one ? lol

    Not that big a deal, if we can get a total of 100 members, its 400k $ a person for the first year. if we dress this up nicely we might even get some government backing because we're being a good samaritan (d2ol, etc). Then we just need to go and collect money on the street because we're in desperate need of cash and sympathy then

    the cell processors could run Dnet or folding and the amd's could do everything else ;)
