Just imagine....

I was watching CNBC this morning and they had IBM's new Blade technology featured.  Quite amazing, it is so fast that they are able to download real time satellite images of the earth's surface and have it rendered immediately.  It was amazing to see accurate mountains, rivers, lakes and such stream by while being very fluid. Can you imagine what that would mean for FS?  Truly doesnt get any better than that.  Of course there is a down side, it will only be in servers first, then released for the main stream, so several years away.

either way, that would be awesome, not that my computer could ever keep up with that now anyways, therefore, thank goodness that its not coming for a few years, my system is rather inferior already... ;D
