clustering is a serious clue!
darwin is based on FreeBsd, and supports process clustering  this means that ones could imagine to cluster a few macs (not only servers, any mac with OSX) to get a powerful processing unit, G4 based. adding 'processing' power to the system would just need to add a new mac, network it and run the client daemon to slave it to the main brain! soundz like a Big VST-link? mlan may be the key for the system... networking macs/gear using a fast firewire network would certainly push our current MIDI and cards based sytem to the jurrassic ages;) we're living a great transition theses days! i hope we will know more when jaguar is released! Vive MacOSX! -------------------- Prutulz
