I'm not sure what is so exciting about a system with 106 processors. When the SGI Origin 3000 can scale to 1024 with a single image of the OS running on it, now that is impressive. Maybe everyone should check out http://www.sgi.com/origin/3000/3800.html
Though the site states that it only goes to 512, there is now an official installed system running 1024 that you can see at www.sgi.com/streaming/products.html#sara
Now that is IMPRESSIVE!
