Listening to Tom Petty's "Into the great wide open" (Rebel without a clue). Kind of an interesting song if you apply the theme towards software rather than music.

Distributed Computing in the Workplace.
CNet:
Rather than continue to let the thousands of PCs in its stores sit largely unused, Gateway plans to announce Tuesday a project that will let companies tap into those PCs for large computing projects.
The PC maker is teaming with distributed-computing start-up United Devices to sell the combined computing power of its PCs to companies on a per-hour basis. Gateway plans to charge 15 cents per PC per hour to companies that want to marshal the computational resources of the latest Gateway desktops.
Potentially cool application. I'm sure that they won't be running SETI or trying to break crypto, but they'd have a good bit of computing power at their disposal. [Matt Croydon::postneo]
