That is a really good idea and luke had mentioned it multiple times in the past but keep in mind that gpus are an extreme patent minefield these days.

Something like a Berkeley sponsored program would be really interesting. _______________________________________________ arm-netbook mailing list [email protected] http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to [email protected]
