"it is fully accessible and programmable like fully functional HPC compute node,
visible to applications as though it was a computer that runs its own
Linux-based operating system independent of the host OS."

If that's true, no need for CUDA (which BTW, NVidia is releasing the source code
to). Knight's Corner is supposedly going to plug into LGA2011, so just get a
dual-processor board, plop in a Knight's Corner, and enjoy 200 threads of
awesome.
