So. Think we'll see a lot more non-graphics application utilizing the GPU in the near future?

This is pretty interesting, especially that the GPU's are so much faster than regular CPU's for particular tasks. It's always interesting getting a GPU to do tasks that it wasn't necessarily intended to be used for - like back in the Amiga demo days. Personally I'd like a cpu that has thousands of cores, one for each OBJECT used by a program, so they can all operate in simultaneous parallel, but maybe that's a way off. At least `stream processing` as they're calling it, ie massive parallelism, is a step in that direction.
