AMD's FireStream 9250: first processor to top 1 Teraflop {Engadget}
Jun 16th 2008 2:45AM Why not put them 4x $1k machine, giving you 4 teraflops per $5k machine.
250 of them, and you'll have a petaflop for 1.25mil.
That'll cut the maintenance and networking by at least 1/2.. so 1/2 mil each.. and leaving the rest the same gives a total of 2.45 million.

My USB dilemma, can you help? {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
May 19th 2008 1:27PM it's an issue of power.. powered USB ports can take up to 1/2 amp of power.. times the 12 you want and that's 6 amps of potential max power (@ 5 volts). Given most power bricks are in the 1 amp @ 12 volts range (12 watts), it gets a little tricky to have a 30+ watt one that's small and doesn't put out so much heat that it can't get UL listed.
Not to say it can't be done, just that's where the difficulty lies. Mini/Towers have full on fan cooled power supplies putting out 10+ amps on the 5v legs.. Apple Mini & laptops have a much more stringent supply of 5v power, thus fewer ports..
give 2 of the belkin stackable 7 port hubs a try, that should cover you..
