I was wondering about that myself, especially when I learned my old athlon 3700+ system wasn't useless for F@H since it has 2 ATI x1600XTs inside. I read a while back on the forum that people have used GPUs to speed up cracking, so I imagine it is only a matter of time before we're sticking in GPUs in our sockets instead of our CPUs.

Heh, wouldn't that be cool. "I can run 8 processes on my dual socket quad-core system." " Yeah? I have thousands." GPUs FTW!
