I ordered stamps from Zazzle that read "Place Stamp Here".

And it runs SUSE Linux. :) I'm sure povray would compile for it. :-)

What's the liquid we see sloshing around in it? Tap water with food
coloring, or distilled water with green lighting, or nitrogen, or
something else?

I think they use propylene glycol (anti-freeze), though they sell
systems with R134a coolant too, so it might be that.

Uh... assuming those cores are of some architecture that POV-Ray
supports, that is. :-P

POV-Ray doesn't support architectures. Compilers support architectures.

Are you seriously suggesting that POV-Ray can simply be recompiled for
any possible architecture that possesses a C compiler? I would think
it's more work than that.

The backend (ie. core renderer) should be pretty much standard portable
C++, so if a standard conforming C++ compiler exists for the architecture,
the POV-Ray backend should be compilable to any such architecture. It's
then only a question of creating a frontend (in its most basic form it's
simply I/O: Some way of feeding the SDL file to the backend, and some way
of outputting the resulting pixels somewhere). Of course if the system
already has support for an existing POV-Ray fronted (eg. a unix-style
command-line interpreter) then it's much easier.

Dual-/quad-core AMD Opterons and a runtime environment including SUSE
Linux... I guess POV-Ray should even install "out of the box", with no
need whatsoever to adapt the system-specific config files :-)
