Q. what is this about then?
A. we are going to build the fastest computer ever made.
Q. why ?
A. because currrent computers are either too slow or too expensive.
Q. how are you going to do it ?
A. we are going to link together a cluster of multiple sony playstations
(nodes) to make one big computer. the workload of the computer is then
shared between the nodes.
Q. can you really do that ?
A. yes. there is no theoretical reason why not. it is already very
successful for current pc's.
Also for your enjoyment, the IGN64 folks do a cheeky comparison with the N64 and
the PS2. http://ign64.ign.com/news/10316.html
Finally, Pokemon Snap is the funnest stupid game I ever sat in front of. There's
something really satisfying about hitting Pickachus in the head with pesterballs.
