So I stumbled on a device (http://www.pixellexis.com) for rendering footage for the Red cameras (www.red.com) and as I was watching a video on their site I noticed two things...

1. They are using it to render XSI scenes like a normal render farm. Watch the corporate video.
2. WTF is PLF's logo doing on the site?


So I can't tell yet if this thing is one rack mounted machine that can house up to 128 procs... or if it's just multiple machines linked together. I think the latter.


Anyway, back to work I go.
