200-Gigaflop Mac Cluster

Mauro Notarianni writes in that the Danish Technical University (DTU) has developed the Scandinavia's largest dedicated Mac cluster. "Velocity-X" is packed with 32 dual G4/800's (200 Gigaflops), and will be turned on Monday. Its primary use will be studying the influence of proteins on cancer, and, more importantly, large film and animation projects. It can be rented for DKK 50,000 (about USD 6,500) per week.

    Dual 800 is an old model, nearly 11 months me think. Maybe they got those dual 800s pretty cheaply if Apple or some reseller wanted clear it's storage for shipment of G5 boxes ;)
