Imagine running Trainz on this:

this thing is only 20 miles from me. I tried to drive in but the guards told me to turn around or be arrested.

I don't think Trainz can take advantage of that many cores, it would probably still lag.

I want one. That would be great for my ECML session. Unlimited AI trains and thosands of locomotives, coaching stock and wagons, Fantastic.

Splines and speedtrees would probably bring it to a crawl.:hehe:

It would, might have billions of whassits and thingys but no graphics card, useless for us here.

Probably doesn't run on Windows or Mac either.

Try this on for size!!

Nothing wrong with the odd petaflop or 2.

Not without some code modification...

On a system like that, you could probably build a map covering whole USA and only get lag as bad as an average computer...
