This really has to be the Holy Grail now doesn't it ?  He looks totally real to me. Very cool  8)

Knowing what I know now, working on my humble project, I guess the major change here is the increased processing power.

Looking forward to the developments :)

Interestingly they talked about their 'old' model Dawn - I found some documents on her during my research which proved very helpful. I may be behind but I am on track :D

Very impressive  8)

I see the Titan graphics card that this is running on is available to the public for around £800

Looking at its specs it isn't that far away from what we (us gamer types)  have now, its basically a 384 bit card, only one step above a basic 256 bit gamers card.

It's actually very close to hand.

Of course it's going to need a top end gaming PC  O0

Long live the PC  :)
