If Firestream makes a serious dent in the computational market, where
power consumption and computational density are im****tant, we'll
probably see a low power and maybe even an ultra-low power version.
The future for certain kinds of computation is racks and racks of
something like this, where the power and space consumed by the
collective is more im****tant the the muscle power of a single card.
