There is a lot of proccessing power in them-there graphics cards. I would expect that high end 3d graphics and scientific computing people would LOVE to get their hands on that and use it in ways that OpenGL doesn't allow.

Erm, you mean like this ?

Personally I'd love to know whether these things do double precision floating point or whether they're just single precision cards..
