Sure, I could just not eat for 3 years.
Seriously though, I wish, oh I wish I could see that configuration running some
game from the future. Each of those 8800GTXs are a whole computer by themselves.
(They chew up 140 Watts each!)
On the other hand, but in the same vain, the heat generated by today's machines really
bothers me. It bothers me to know that today's processors aren't really getting faster
through improved efficiency, but through increased power usage.
I hope that sometime in the near future, we stumble upon a new process of computing that
is drastically more efficient than what we've got now. 'Cause we're heading for a
ceiling. Not all of us can afford liquid nitrogen cooling, but sadly, that's the direction
computing is going.
