[obvious correction] Its interesting how the gaming industry is using all this technology out of the Military. Networks, 3D Graphics, and Even Voxel Based animation all had their start in Military applications. [/obvious correction]
[bitch about slashdot] I whish the editors would stop having 'insightfull' observations about artilces and just let them stand on their own. [/bitch about slashdot]

Really, this is a moronic thing to do. The US government is going to purchase this technology made by Quantum3d and NVIDIA. Okay, I'm fine with that but this technology is manufactured in other countries, some of which are even our enemies. Japan is getting stronger, it has the 2nd largest economy on earth, do we really want to fight another war in the Pacific?
Is this really a good idea having the United States, the Land of the Free, Our Home and Native Land, the fighter of Communism, using equipment build by our enemies, to fight our enemies. Sounds ironic doesn't it? Our enemies will profit off of supplying us. Why don't we just hand them some money so they can build more weapons and train more soldiers to fly more planes into more buildins with more fuel killing more helpless American civilians.
We might as well have another Civil War. COOL! Lets have another civil war. Let the South Rise Again. Let another 30 million die for no god damn fucking reason.
I'm not sure what your opinion is, but I am sure as hell not going to let this happen.
Buy American goods. Support American manufacturers. Run Windows, not some Chinese Communist RedHat Linux software. Use Intel processors, not processors (AMD) made by the hostile Malaysians.
