IBM supposedly has an entire floor devoted to abusing the new processors, but they are not folding, just stress testing.
There is an active alpha program at Stanford testing the R600 series chips, and soon the integrated video chips will be tested.
Streaming teraflop-in-a-box DAMMIT chips are still several quarters away from reaching us, but the geeks that I talk to really think that they will leapfrog both NVidia and Intel.
Well GPU’s are pure math crunching machines, and the R600 supposably is rumored to have it’s own physics engine on die so that will only add to its mathematical crunching power. Anyways thanks for the heads up.
