Meeeeee! How about using the extropian idle CPU pool or
the ExI GIMPS team to see if a huge matrix can be inverted
using distributed computing? I wonder what is the largest
matrix ever to be inverted? The two largest matrices ever
multiplied? Shall we find out and try for the world's record?
Can you not see the application of using distributed computing
to do matrix arithmetic to make artificial fractal landscapes, etc?
Id give up GIMPS in a heartbeat if someone can figure out
how to do this. spike
