Hmm Bill Gates, maybe...I doubt it's something you 'buy', more
likely just rent time on.  Big corporations and governments are
pretty much the only entities able to actually buy things like
that.  Just find someone who's involved in the project, slip
'em POV and your scene file, and ask them to run it through the
supercomputer. ;)

Oh yeah, then give you the output.
