I, for one, would like to see the hardware necessary to accomplish that. I'm sure it took a $20k system and some sort of RAID to handle that level of data transfer without chugging. I mean, look at Vista. It takes more than a gig of ram to make that stuff reasonably bootable anymore.

I'll be impressed when they can lean down their code so that a Celeron based system can still be a viable and efficient business machine.

Hmmm.. I don't think that this is meant to be a "Personal Computer" type application.

Did you follow the link the the Photosynth website? It's pretty cool! There are several collections of pictures already there that you can navigate through like he does in the video. I believe this is intended to always be a client-server type application. With the data being on the (Very Robust) Server.

Robust is an understatement. Banks of massive servers running on a even larger SAN

That is amazing stuff... Very cool, but scary at the same time.

AGREED.

Very cool stuff. :rock:

They need to continue their work in Nano-Tech to reduce the size of components, so that one day.... well... you know.

Very, very cool.

Scoot... That "Photosynth" link don't work....

Try this one.
