Not surprising considering the absurd claims you see from some people... especially people who seem to not have a clue (Atheist, amongst others)
There are some real gems on the Natami forums:
Intel recently said that the future of GPUs will be ray-tracing and Nvidia said that such claims are ridiculous. From what I read NATAMI , comes out of nowhere with a home-grown designed CPU and GPU, is supposed to be capable of ray-tracing Quake 3 @ 800x600/truecolor @ 30fps!
I fully support the Natami project, and I might even buy one if I find myself with the cash handy. If they get it working it'll be an incredible feat, and it'll be cool no matter how its benchmarks compare to a new PC... but these claims that it will be the fastest computer ever and cost 100 inflation-wrecked American dollars... you don't really know whether to laugh or start smashing skulls.
