Myself? I prefer a nice UltraSPARC T1 to lust over. I just wish it came in a desktop/workstation form factor.

Niagara 2 is slated to be even more capable in pushing enormous amounts of data around. I can't wait.

So you can do what, run integer Java code with a bajillion threads?

EDIT:
Alternatively, you can just fabricate your own. Everyone loves Verilog!

Nonononono. Don't be silly. You'd run integer FORTRAN with a bajillion threads. Much easier to parallelize and waaay more efficient than Java.

"make -j33" is fun, too.

ugh new Sun machines suck. You have to run everything on top of a binary hypervisor
