440 Forums _ Development _ Xgrid: Network Supercomputing For Audio Apps?

Posted by: Doxxic Tue 13 Jan 2004, 11:02

XGrid is Apple's technology that makes your computer share processing power with other computers on the network.

It's aimed at scienctifical work, like DNA research and examining the stars. But the article I attached says it could also be useful for graphic work.

Now I was wondering if it micht work with audio apps, but I don't have a computer network.

What do you think?

Anyone tried?

The article also tells you how to download and install it.

If it works, my next upgrade may not be Powercore, but just another Mac!
