[mdlug] Parallella: A Supercomputer For Everyone by Adapteva — Kickstarter

[David Lane]

What is kind of graphics card do you have? 

Graphics is a common form of distributed computing.  But it is when the applications can take advantage of the "off CPU" resource you yield performance results.

I guess a good example of a practical multi-threaded application is a good middle-ware resource.

Graphics.  I have a decent machine, but I can bog it down with enough graphics work.  It would be nice  to not have that happen.
