The point being, all this fascination with mobility, thin clients, low power and small is fine as long as there is an acknowledgement that at the other end of that is the need for very big, very serious horsepower --- and just as importantly ---big data pipes.
Hey, maybe SGI will come back! ;-)
Or, more likely, the "market" will speak, and decide that crappy YouTube videos on their designer pocket devices will be the only media people want to consume. :-(
LOL Paul you took that to mean the other end of the "market", which is not what I meant when I wrote it but I guess that kinda works too!
What I was thinking when I wrote it was that at the other end of the "pipe" from that thin client is the big processing monster.
