Since when has 600MB of data or even 7 times 600MB going to fill a desktop hard drive! This comment is 100 times ovestated. Talk about hype, you are just as bad as the grid computing companies, you are creating it.

"One of the world's largest grid projects passed a major test by juggling enough data to fill a couple of desktop hard drives every second for 10 days.

The institutions behind the grid for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) successfully completed a challenge to sustain a continuous data flow of on average 600MB per second for 10 days between the European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva and seven sites in Europe and North America."
