They've done a nice job with the cabling. :)

Good video, they even use simple terms so that anyone can understand their point. It seems like GPUs are steadily becoming more popular and powerful for certain applications. It would be nice to see more distributed computing projects taking advantage of this, especially as the hardware becomes more mainstream.
