Shadow, all I can say is WOW!
I'd love to see what comptuer you're running at home.
My P4 curently can handle about 2.7 Billion calculations per second, maybe a few more, I haven't counted for a while.

The new Cray is gonna run at 40 trillion calculations per second. So it's a little bit faster.
I heard that IBM are working on one that will run at 49 trillion!!

A while ago there was a company that linked 233 PIII's together and created a computer than could run 122 billion calculations per second.

It might be 2003 but Cray has moved on too.

Good point about using old machines for rendering. I've tried network rendering too, but without much luck.
