So it doesn't run the general x64 system architecture? Then how is this different from GPGPU? I thought NVIDIA broke a teraflop on a dual slot a while back (dunno if it was single GPU.) Slot based coprocessors have always been a very niche kind of thing.

Basically, if I can't hook it up to my SSD array and also my GPU, then it's not a "real" computer -- like the reporter was talking about a laptop. And if I can't rent it by the hour from Amazon, then it's not really a good investment (Amazon already has GPU instances.)

Or, you know, maybe this time it will work, when every time before, a co-processor platform has failed...
