But they won’t stay at those kinds of prices for that long.

I’m imagining a Gnu Radio core that takes full advantage of the
multi-core CPUs, and knows how to shuffle
work off to Nvidia GPUs and the like. I think FFTW already has a
multi-thread variant, which would be
a clear win for certain types of functions. 16Mhz baseband bandwidth,
here we come :slight_smile:
