hehe, sorry, I should have been a little more specific.

A big-iron is a common term for a mainframe computer, which IBM are pretty good at knocking out.

Check this out for example, 12Gb RAM, meh, how about 256Gb?

IBM zSeries 990

I'm saving up for this system; http://www.cray.com/products/systems/sx6/

The Cray Sx6 here's some spec's'

"A single Cray SX-6 node offers two to eight vector processors, each with eight gigaflops of peak performance. Each processor shares a uniform high-performance memory of 16 to 64 gigabytes capacity, and up to 256 gigabytes per second of bandwidth. Configurations of multiple Cray SX-6 nodes, called MultiNodes, deliver a single-system image through an IXS Internode Crossbar Switch. MultiNodes offer up to eight teraflops (one trillion calculations per second) of peak performance, eight terabytes of memory and an I/O bandwidth of more than 800 gigabytes/second."

Want me to contact them and ask for a quote? I'll tell a bunch of us over at Madshrimps want one so we can get into Orb's "Hall of Fame"? I'll ask them how well it'll run 3DMark2001SE.

And could we get a refurb model?
