huh, interesting... i saw something very similar at the '00 Siggraph in New Orleans. in the Silicon graphics (SGI) booth, they had a floor-standing Origin 3500 (Onyx InfiniteReality2) that they had stripped all the graphics options from, and had it tied into a cubed box about 3' x 3' that was packed w/ 16 PS2 motherboards, all running simultaneously... this rig was pumping out a stream of realtime HD graphics (1920x1080, 1080p) all in 3D, not a static render and perfectly fluid... looks to be a similar application. i took some good digital pictures of that setup, i'll try to dig them out to post in this thread..
