Done.
Andreas -- I have been an admirer for a long time. Did attend Tokyo conference (and the quake which gave us that great tour of DMM Akiba!) Hope that Aapteva has a great future. I work in neural nets / deep learning and so do not fit the hacker-/building a hardware solution profile, unfortunately. But I do have a desperate need for thousands of cores, maybe 2 or ideally even 4 times more memory per core, and a little better hardware mathematic function support. (Real Neurons get things for "free" by virtue of the structure of their cell bodies/chemistry that otherwise require rather lengthy arithmetic to simulate in some of the advanced neuron models. Many-core vendors sometimes offer "intrinsic functions" that can help with the simulation, see CUDA intrinsic functions from NVIDIA.)
One can always dream. Please keep up the good work!
