PS3 Supercomputer

[Flippy the Squirrel]

So, Roadrunner (currently fastest computer in the world), uses lots of Cell processors, originally developed for the PS3, as part of its core infrastructure. An astrophysicist created a PS3 cluster to study black holes, but all I find about Xbox clusters is "let's do it someday"!

Does anyone have other examples of game console computer clusters?

thanks to the power of BCCD we can MAKE an X360 cluster. would anyone like to join me in trying to get it to run properly?

Xbox = fail. I still think we should do the N64 cluster.

Why do you have the Natalie Portman from Leon as your avatar. That's only slightly creepy. Good picture though.
