Setting up 10 boxes with 4 cpus each is just ridiculous, don't forget you'll have to maintain each of them forever. Actually for about the same price you can buy a IBM server with 4 sockets and 8 cores in each socket (total 32 cpus), with a couple of GB of RAM for cpu. Maybe even two of those server, if you can get a good deal and are satisfied with a bit less RAM and a slightly slower cpu.

Talking about mixed cpu/gpu, it is very fashionable at the moment, but it is expensive and requires specific programming: in the end a gpu is just a cpu, just optimized to perform better in some very specific cases (and much worse in others). I have the feeling it is just buzzword used to make you feel your hardware is not adequate, but only time will tell.

I'm not sure how many digits are in my ID, could you count them and send me the result by email?

I also find ironic that vegetarians often advocate the consumption of tofu. You see, if they do not eat meat they should be coherent and not eat anything else either. In other words: some EULA are absurd and likely legally unenforceable. Some others are reasonable in providing a trade-off between the rights of the copyright holder and the rights of the user.

Not really true: if you use one of those for heavy duty calculations, the heat produced by the CPU nd disk will ruin the LCD monitor in slightly more than one year; I've seen this happen to more than one at my workplace. On the other hand, if all you use is the web browser and keynote, it will still be powerful enough in 10 years.

If I got it correctly, LogMeIn is some kind of remote-desktop application. If this is the case, just fire up the browser and check facebook, chances are he logged in as himself and left the session open. You may also be able to upload the browser history somewhere (e.g. dropbox) than retrieve it and analyse it.

Unfortunately my dog ate the benchmarks when I was about to post them. I'll send you a dietary supplement of humour instead.

I'm disappointed, everybody knows that when the going get tough FORTRAN get going

That's not a disclaimer, but a disclosure.

Even if I'm not a big fan of web service, i.e. I detest webmails, I suggest this wonderful web-based alternative: imo.im. Its killer feature is that it is compatible with skype and can let you make and receive voice and video calls in-browser using only the flash plugin.

Of course it also supports other protocols, included MSN, goole talk and, facebook chat up to a total of 9. Accounts can be linked together so you only need to login with one. There is also a downloadable client but, afaik, only for windows and an android client, which does not allow voice calls (yet?). I regularly use it at my office (where installing skype is forbidden)
